    StandoutDramatic pinnacle topography

    Candice Thila, down in Baa Atoll, is a nice, straightforward pinnacle. It’s not going to blow your mind, but it’s a really solid choice for an easy afternoon dive, especially if you’re newer to Maldives diving. We often find schools of blue-striped snappers hanging out around the edges, and the top of the thila hosts a good variety of anemones, each with their resident clownfish. At 22m max, it’s a calm, shallow exploration that’s perfect for beginners or just easing back into things after a travel day.
