A protected thila on the north side of Orimas faru in North Ari Atoll, also called Maagaa Thila, rising from about 30 m to 3-6 m. A long cave runs along the reef face between roughly 15 and 20 m, lined with soft coral, gorgonians and feather stars, and a shallow top crack teems with small life and anemonefish. Grey reef sharks frequent the site.
