    StandoutDramatic pinnacle topography

    Heaven and Hell, also known as Theefarido Thila, is a pinnacle in Baa Atoll that delivers a solid intermediate dive. Dropping to a max of 26 meters, it's a spot we usually visit for its reliable current-swept action. You'll often find a decent school of grey reef sharks patrolling the edges, especially on an incoming tide, with trevally and snappers hanging out closer to the top of the thila. We'd suggest this one for divers comfortable with a bit of current, as that's often when it really comes alive.
