Hoholha Gah
★★★★★
(147)
Located just north of Hilton Maldives Amingiri, Neygey Thila is a protected underwater pinnacle between two channels. Also known as Hoholha Gaa, meaning “rock with overhangs”, the site features a top reef at 4m descending steeply to around 30m and is suitable for all levels.
Explore overhangs filled with long-nosed hawkfish, red anemones and juvenile reef fish. Look closely for nudibranchs, cleaner shrimp, moray eels, lionfish and fusiliers.
