About Miyaru Giri
Miyaru Giri is an underwater pinnacle in a channel near Kadholhudhoo Island. The top starts shallow and the site drops quickly into a steep channel feature with large coral blocks on the southern side that create the main structure. The dive is known for snapper, sweetlips, eagle rays, grey reef sharks, whitetip reef sharks, nurse sharks, tuna, and hawksbill turtles, with current-aware diving the norm.

Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
A classic scuba pinnacle for certified divers comfortable with current and larger shark encounters.
Freediving
Experienced freedivers can use the shallow top in calm conditions, but the site is primarily a scuba dive because the action drops quickly into the pinnacle and channel.
Snorkeling
Not a primary snorkel site; the useful line sits on the pinnacle and channel edges rather than a calm shallow reef.
