Ellaidhoo Thila
★★★★☆
(376)
Ellaidhoo Thila is a submerged pinnacle north of the resort island Ellaidhoo, close to Ellaidhoo Channel. The top reef is about 8 meters deep and falls down to 30+ meters sandy bottom. Sometimes the current can make this dive difficult - just always remember to make a quick descent.
The South side presents plenty of overhangs with gorgonian fans and black bush corals. With some current we encounter many schooling fishes as well as grey reef and white tip sharks.
