About this site
Medhu Thila is a thila, a submerged reef pinnacle rising from the atoll floor near Kamadhoo in Baa Atoll, Maldives. Baa Atoll is a UNESCO biosphere reserve known for its channels and reef systems, which draw manta rays and a wide range of reef fish, and its thilas are typically reached by boat from nearby islands or resorts. Divers here have reported Clark's anemonefish, giant moray eels, Indo-Pacific sergeant majors, oriental sweetlips, saddleback and yellowhead butterflyfish, striped surgeonfish, tawny hermit crabs, titan triggerfish, and two-spot red snapper around the pinnacle.
