Anga Thilas - Baa Atoll

Anga Thilas is a single pinnacle reaching a maximum depth of 25m in Baa Atoll. We've found it’s a good spot for a relaxed intermediate dive, often with a moderate current. Expect to see reef sharks patrolling the edges and schools of fusiliers circling the main structure. It’s a solid daytime dive, particularly good for those looking for pelagics without the need for extreme depths.
