Photography: For landscape and shots of napoleons use wide angle, 14mm - 28 mm. Also excellent for macro, 50mm - 100mm.
There are 3 sections of reef to this thila. The smallest being no more than 10m in diameter, while the
larger one is about 50m in length. A hole in the larger one at 13m makes an ideal starting point from
where the dhoni can secure a line. All 3 sections are pitted with nooks, crannies, steep ledges, overhangs
and caves providing a veritable feast of marine life.
2 huge pinnacles with big overhangs, covered with soft corals and abundant marine life. Napoleon wrasse,
reef sharks, schools of barracuda are frequently seen. Schools of curious batfish, oriental sweet lips
and many scorpionfish.
