About Ifuru thila
Ifuru Thila is a boat-run Raa Atoll channel thila with a shallow top reef and a long drop to the outer face, so it feels like a defined line rather than a simple plunge. The site is known for sharks, rays, and schooling fish moving with the current, and it suits experienced divers who can stay trimmed and plan their turn cleanly. January-April is the clearest conservative window, while the rest of the year stays diveable with warmer, plankton-rich water.
