Why dive here
With 98+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, sea turtles, spinner dolphins and whale sharks - Fesdhoo thila offers some of Rasdhoo Atoll's richest pinnacle diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest April, May, July.
Fesdhoo Thila is one of those Rasdhoo pinnacles that offers a reliable dive, even if it doesn't always steal the show. We've seen decent action here, particularly when the current picks up and brings in a few reef sharks patrolling the deeper edges. Keep an eye out for the resident moray eels tucked into the coral, and look closely for the camouflaged scorpionfish often found perched on the coral heads. It’s a solid choice for a second dive of the day, or if you’re looking for a relaxed drift where you can just hang out and watch the reef go by.
