About this dive site
This dive site is a remarkable reef extending 2 kilometers along the coastline. The underwater terrain gently slopes downwards from the shore, creating an accessible and inviting environment for divers of various experience levels. More than five distinct areas offer enjoyable diving experiences. Subtle currents occasionally present opportunities for drift dives. A notable drop-off exists between 25 and 30 meters. The southern portion of the reef culminates in a spectacular coral garden—the renowned Abu Soma.
