A wall and slope dive in Thaa (Kolhumadulu) Atoll named for the large gorgonian sea fans covering its steep face. The gentle slope gives way to a current-swept wall where schooling batfish and fusiliers, manta rays and turtles pass, with nudibranchs and crustaceans among the rocks. Current can be strong, making it an intermediate to advanced dive.
