Paradise Rock or Nassimo Thila can be found in the centre of the channel to the south west of Lankan Finolhu, reached in one hour sailing from Male'. This is an advanced dive. The top of the reef is at 9 meters and the best point is on the eastern side of the reef facing the ocean current. Here a large section of the reef about 100 meters long has broken away, depositing a series of large boulders at about 45 meters deep. Where the corals have fallen away, a long series of caverns and overhangs remain. The whole area is constantly washed with ocean currents and the overhangs are packed with colorful soft corals and sponges. The rocks are overgrown with sea fans, black coral and are full of fish life. Schools of snappers, fusiliers and sweet lips are common.
