Dhigufaru island

Dhigufaru is a small private island in the Baa Atoll, Maldives. The beach is beautiful with nice white sand, however, vegetation is quite poor. There is a good snorkeling and diving right near the shore, as well as in the shallow lagoon located 50 meters off the island's east end. Shore and seabed: sand. [edit]
