Eyeballing our course through the Northern Thiladhunmathee Atoll, which was surveyed the last time between 1829 CE and 1837 CE by Commander Robert Moresby of the Royal Navy with the help of a good old-fashioned lead line, and finally entering Gaafaru Falhu through the northwest entrance at waypoint N 04° 46.66' E 073° 23.74'.



Stargazing at the omnipresent Orion, the northern Great Baer and the Southern Cross which are simultaneously visible in these low latitudes near the equator.

DM Konni: Scubadiving the inner reef, relaxing under water and socialising with plenty of the most colourful reef fish and with all kinds or rays.
