Medhu Thila
★★★★☆
(51)
This thila is located about 30 minutes south of Sirru Fen Fushi Private Lagoon Resort. It starts fairly shallow at around 5 meters then gradually drops down to 30+ meters on all sides. The dive usually takes place on the northern side of the thila where most of the action can be found as well as some overhangs.
Medhukuburudhoo Thila, with the right current, is a good place to come eye to eye with the elusive silvertip reef shark and often eagle rays. An excellent site not to be missed.
