About this site
Maha Thila is a thila among the dive sites around Helengeli in the Maldives. Life here ranges from small nudibranchs to stonefish, so care is needed around the bottom. Stonefish are among the residents, so keep hands and fins clear of the reef.
There is a very nice overhang dressed in black coral, which makes a slow pass along it worthwhile. Visibility is good and the water temperature is about 28°C.
