Himandhoo Thila
★★★★☆
(283)
Himandhoo Thila is located in the channel between the islands of Himandhoo and Moofushi. There is some interesting topography here with nice canyons and overhangs. Although this site is possible for all levels, beware of the current as it can get very strong.
Come in the Northeast monsoon (Dec - Apr) for a chance to spot manta rays. Other species include grey reef sharks, barracuda, sweetlips, nudibranch, turtles and napoleon wrasse.
