About this dive site

This dive site is located near Larak Island in Iran, a 30-minute boat ride from a diving center. The dive site itself is relatively shallow, ranging from 5 to 9 meters in depth with a maximum of 11 meters. Navigation is straightforward due to the shallow depths and generally clear visibility. There is no specific historical information provided regarding this site, but its proximity to the Larak Lighthouse suggests a potential long-standing presence in relation to maritime activities.

The marine life here is diverse and includes a variety of fish species. Anemones and clownfish are mentioned, along with captain's daughter fish (likely referring to a type of angelfish), electric rays, and barracudas. The presence of diverse fish suggests a healthy reef system, potentially with coral formations, though specific details about the coral types are unavailable.

The best time to visit Larak Island, and therefore this dive site, would likely be during the warmer months when water temperatures are most comfortable. Clear visibility is preferable for an enjoyable dive experience. For both scuba divers and freedivers, the shallow depths make this site accessible and relatively low-risk. However, it is always recommended to be cautious of marine life and check weather and current conditions before entering the water.
