About Ras Abdallah
This site lies north of Makadi Bay and features a fringing reef that transitions from a shallow reef slope to a broad plateau before dropping away as a steep wall into deep water. Typical dive profiles explore the outer edge of the wall and then return into the shallower areas. Divers can see pelagic life along the wall, with large table corals providing shelter for schooling fish. Moray eels and reef sharks are also encountered, and stonefish may be present.
