Where does Ditwah come from?

The name “Ditwah” translates to “lagoon”

The name was proposed by Yemen for the regional list of tropical cyclone names and specifically refers to the Ditwah Lagoon on Socotra Island, a famous natural habitat known for its striking coastline and rich marine life.

The name “Ditwah” recently gained prominence as the name given to a severe cyclonic storm that impacted Sri Lanka and South India in late November and early December 2025.
