Kandooma Thila is shaped like a teardrop; this 300 meter long thila is nothing to cry about. It is one of the most exciting dives in South Male Atoll and boasts great scenery as well as prolific fish life. The west and north sides are the most spectacular, with the top at 16 meters. At the north-western corner of the thila (Jack Corner), is a cave at 23 meters with soft coral but the main feature here are the dense schools of big-eye trevally and red bass, tunas and barracudas. There are several large outcrops of rock near the west corner on the north side covered with bright soft corals. On the reef edge are caves and overhangs full of interesting marine life. Along the reef you will see eagle rays and reef sharks but for most of the divers the highlight is to find the big green turtles, sleeping and strolling on the top of the reef.
