Vadhoo Thila in Gaafu Dhaalu (South Huvadhoo) Atoll is a thila reportedly rising from about 30 m to within 5 m of the surface, noted for soft-coral-coated walls, caves and overhangs and frequently dived as a drift. Strong currents can require a negative entry, and it suits a range of skill levels with good macro and shark sightings.
