Plan a guided boat dive from Rannalhi; Lara Giri is a small rocky reef loop with steady fish life and modest current sensitivity.
About Lara Giri
Lara Giri is a compact boat dive off the Rannalhi area for divers who want a simple reef loop rather than a long channel run. The site is a small rocky giri with black sponge corals and busy fish life, so the main draw is the terrain and the steady reef action. Plan for a guided boat dive and expect the site to feel most relaxed on a calm day with manageable current.
