About this dive site
This dive site, known locally as ‘Little Trees’ in Arabic, is a truly unique experience accessible only by boat. The dive begins at the reef, where you are dropped off directly beside it. Descend along a beautiful coral wall to reach a sandy bottom, and then explore an impressive open canyon located on its deep side – approximately 16 meters below the surface. Navigating between the canyon walls reveals two large black corals, offering a chance to spot the elusive long-nosed hawkfish. Continue to a virtual forest of gorgonian fan corals, scattered along the reef wall, extending into the deeper waters. The ascent takes you back towards the reef table and then into a stunning lagoon boasting giant table corals and abundant marine life. As you return to the coral wall, explore the last set of gorgonians before heading back into the lagoon in search of nudibranchs, blue-spotted rays, crocodile fish, and other fascinating species. The canyon is reached at the end of the lagoon; take a final look inside and prepare for your safety stop.
