About Sirru Faru Dhekunu
Sirru Faru Dhekunu is a boat-access drift dive just south of the island, where a long slope keeps the route easy and the profile relaxed. It is a good fit for steady scuba planning, with boat-channel traffic as the main watch-out. Expect lobsters, moray eels, rays, and other reef life rather than a high-friction site, especially on calmer days.
