    Bodu Gaa in Baa Atoll is one of those classic Maldivian reef dives that can surprise you. It’s a good spot for finding different reef fish, often with plenty of fusiliers zipping around. We’ve seen white tip reef sharks patrol the deeper sections and the occasional eagle ray glide past. It’s a solid, easy-going dive, good for all levels if the current stays mellow.
