About Hohola Thila
Hohola Thila is a small North Ari thila with a colorful reef-top circuit and a sloping profile that rewards a slow lap. It is known for dense fish life, coral cover, and regular frogfish sightings, with sharks, rays, and other reef critters adding to the mix. The site works best as a guided boat dive that uses the thila’s shape and current windows rather than a fixed route. It suits photographers and relaxed reef divers who are comfortable with a deeper, moving-water profile.
