Boat-only Maldives thila with overhangs, light current and good visibility; an easy scenic dive with reef fish and occasional manta rays.
About Filladhoo Thila
Filladhoo Thila is a west-side Maldives pinnacle with overhangs, a friendly profile and reef walls that make it a good all-level boat dive. The site is more about a rounded thila with ledges and fish-moving lanes than a single dramatic drop, so the dive feels relaxed when the current stays light. Triggerfish, groupers, Napoleon wrasse, snapper and occasional manta rays are the headline sightings. Gentle currents and good visibility make it an easy, scenic thila when the sea is calm.
