    StandoutRich in charismatic marine life

    Hafusa Thila is a classic Maldivian pinnacle, its rounded top sitting around 10-15 metres. It widens as you descend, like an inverted cone, until it meets a sandy bottom at about 30-35 metres. We often hit this as a first dive, especially when there's a good current running – that's when the resident white-tip reef sharks tend to cruise in over the sand. Without a decent push of water, it can be a little quiet, but with it, you'll see plenty of schooling fusiliers and snapper hanging around the edges. It's a nice easygoing dive, good for most experience levels.
