Diving the Dhaalu Atoll

The Haa Dhaalu Atoll is another dive area with wide channels and shallower drop-offs for more novice divers and it also has underwater caves that are good for the less experienced and experienced alike. In this area, you will see some very unique sea creatures such as the Napoleon fish, longnose hawkfish and a variety of eels, sea turtles and reef sharks. The Fushi Kandu dive site features five different thilas (or underwater islands) in a wide channel, one kilometer/half mile across, which stretches from Maavaru Falhu to Maadhiggaru Falhu.
