With 98+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, sea turtles, spinner dolphins and whale sharks - Himendhoo Thila offers some of Rasdhoo Atoll's richest pinnacle diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest April, May, July.
Himendhoo Thila is a classic Maldivian pinnacle dive in Rasdhoo Atoll, known for its pelagic action. We often find grey reef sharks patrolling the drop-offs, especially early in the morning when the currents are typically gentler. Look for schooling bannerfish and occasional eagle rays gliding past. This site is a solid pick for intermediate divers who appreciate larger marine life.
