Reef dive on the eastern side of Thaa (Kolhumadulu) Atoll off Kolhufushi, with coral mounds and large table corals on an upper reef around 6 to 8 m sloping to a sandy bottom near 30 to 35 m. Manta rays sometimes glide past along the slope. A relatively gentle reef dive suitable for most certified divers, best dived in the northeast monsoon (December to April). Coordinate is the Kolhufushi (Thaa) island proxy, not the dive site, and a separate Kolhufushi exists in Meemu Atoll.
