This area hides dozens of beautiful reefs covered with gorgonians where shoals of fusiliers, jacks, trevallies, tuna, jacks are cruising around. Mantas, white-tip sharks, hammerheads are slowly patrolling the reef walls. Lion-fishes and rays are hiding in the caves. The wealth of micro-fauna on this wall is truly unique with a multitude of small creatures in innumerable cracks.

In the cracks of the wall there are rich anemone gardens with accompanying them clownfishes.

Khor Shinab Bay

Fantastic Khor Shinab Bay, a rare place on Earth without a sign of human presence - a glistening specular ribbon curling into the vast pink Martian desert between tender turquoise shoals, ancient red rocks, white plains spangled with millions of ancient shells, with flocks of flamingo relaxing in the coves, tranquil silhouettes of wild camels framing the mountains and endless colorful reefs under the water.


Ras Abu Shagara

An underwater aquarium is another name of this site as it is bursting with life: shoaling squirrel-fish, red groupers, clouds of butterfly fish, emperor fish, angelfish populating massive coral towers rising up from 30 m depth in the middle of the blue.
