Dhigali Haa is a thila (submerged reef pinnacle) in Baa Atoll, Maldives, with a maximum depth of 7 metres and a reef top at around 6 metres. The site features a small canyon on the west side, another on the north, and a series of overhangs draped in soft corals and anemones, giving the terrain a varied, sheltered character well suited to close inspection.
The reef holds a large variety of schooling fish actively hunted by giant trevallies and tunas, while resident sea turtles, eagle rays, spotted rays, and barracuda appear regularly, requiring divers to look up from the reef periodically. The overhangs and structure make it a strong site for macro photography, with soft corals and anemones providing the backdrop. The best season runs from August to November.
Entry is by boat. The site's relatively shallow depth and sheltered canyons keep it accessible, and it is considered one of the more manageable dives in the area while still offering considerable variety for experienced photographers and wildlife watchers alike.
