StandoutDramatic pinnacle topography

Ifuru Thila is a decent pinnacle dive in Baa Atoll, dropping to 24m. We often find schooling fusiliers here, along with the occasional grey reef shark patrolling the edges. Currents can be moderate, making it a good spot for intermediate divers looking for pelagic action. It’s not a showstopper, but it’s reliably interesting.
