Hithadhoo Corner
Channel corner at the southern tip of Laamu near Hithadhoo, with manta cleaning stations along the reef edge about five minutes by boat from Six Senses Laamu. Resident reef mantas can be seen year-round, green turtles rest on the reef and groupers gather in schools. The corner accelerates the current, so it is run as a drift dive.
