Kandooma Thila

Kandooma Thila is South Malé's blue-water grandstand. The teardrop-shaped pinnacle lies in a channel mouth, and on an incoming tide its up-current point turns into a theater: gray reef sharks stacked in the flow, eagle rays flapping past in formation, tuna and trevally cutting through bait clouds. The reef itself is in fine shape, with sea fans and soft coral under the ledges and turtles resting out of the current. It is a protected site, a demanding one, and on the right tide one of the country's great dives.

您此行的高光时刻: Shark and eagle-ray action at the up-current point; healthy ledges and fans

地形地貌: Elongated pinnacle with overhangs and coral-covered ledges falling to a sandy channel floor

水流: An exposed channel-mouth thila; expect a negative entry and a hooked-in stretch when the tide runs.

危险因素: Strong current with possible down-currents on the corners; blue-water descents.

保育: Protected marine area; hook only into bare rock and give the shark line right of way.
