Ras Bob

This dive site, Ras Bob, is a tribute to underwater cameraman Bob Johnson, who worked in the area for many years. It's characterized by its sheltered location, offering protection from waves and wind, and typically experiencing weak currents. Divers can enjoy this site as a drift dive, following the gentle currents, or as a mooring dive, exploring the area at their own pace. The site features numerous small bays with light-colored sandy floors, adding to the visual appeal and creating a peaceful diving environment. Many small caves are present adding to the underwater landscape. The marine life at Ras Bob is diverse, although not necessarily abundant in large pelagic species. Expect to see a variety of colorful reef fish, including angelfish, butterflyfish, and parrotfish. The sandy areas may hold various crustaceans and smaller invertebrates. Coral growth, while not massive, is healthy, adding to the overall beauty of the site. It's a good location for macro photography enthusiasts. The best time to visit Ras Bob is during the warmer months, typically from April to October, when water temperatures are more pleasant and visibility is usually at its best. For both divers and freedivers, this site's calm conditions make it a relatively easy and enjoyable dive. However, always check the weather and current conditions before your dive. Remember to maintain buoyancy control in the caves and ensure adequate air supply for scuba divers, and sufficient breath-holding skills for freedivers.
