Protected Marine Area

Nassimo Thila (Paradise Rock / Virgin Reef) is a protected thila in North Male Atoll, roughly 2 km west of Lankanfinolhu. Its northeast side carries large pinnacles and overhangs draped in soft coral and sea fans, exposed to strong channel current. Marine life includes napoleon wrasse, barracuda, schooling snapper and nurse sharks sheltering under the overhangs. Strong current and tricky orientation make it an advanced dive.
