Sirru Thila
Experienced-only thila with strong current.
A Maldivian pinnacle with overhangs, rich coral growth, and predator action in Shaviyani Atoll.
About Sirru Thila
Sirru Thila is a deep Maldivian thila in Shaviyani Atoll, best suited to experienced divers. The site has overhangs on the deeper side, rich coral growth, and a current-fed reef line that can pull big fish through when the tide is moving. Expect a proper current dive rather than a relaxed reef cruise. Nitrox is recommended, and the best runs come when the tide and current line up.
