Panettone sits in the middle of Kallhahandhi Kandu; as water flushes back and forth, this giri receives replenishment on a continuous basis. A long overhang between 12 meters to 25 meters along the reef wall is covered floor to ceiling with a plethora of multi colored soft corals, sea fans, sea whips, and sponges. Squirrelfish, Angelfish, Fairy Basslets, Butterflyfish, Scorpionfish, Coral Cod, Triggerfish, Pufferfish and Pipefish in various combinations of colours lurk among the corals and gaps. Moving through this gap in a slow current evokes feelings of a journey through an artist's paint box. Panettone is the most colour intense dive in the Maldives . The channels are ideal to look out for reef sharks, Dog tooth Tuna, Eagle Rays and Mantas.
