    Thoddoo Rangabeelu is a nice, relaxed spot in North Ari, perfect if you’re looking for a chill dive. The reef plateaus around 23 meters, making it quite accessible for newer divers or those who just want to take it easy. We’ve drifted along here with schools of snappers and sweetlips, and usually spotted a turtle or two munching on the corals. It’s a gentle introduction to Maldivian diving, without the strong currents some of the other channels are known for. Come here for a calm, pleasant dive, not for high-octane pelagic action.
