Best for intermediate divers, 15-30m, boat entry, moderate current.
Lhohi Bodu Kandu is a channel dive in the South Male Atoll featuring a reef wall and a drop-off that descends into deeper water. The site is accessed by boat and is suited for intermediate divers due to the moderate currents and potential for down currents near the wall. Divers typically explore between 15 and 30 metres, where visibility ranges from 15 to 30 metres. Surge and swell can affect positioning, requiring careful buoyancy control. It is recommended to time entries with incoming currents to facilitate a drift along the reef wall, though conditions can shift quickly.
