About Ras Abu Soma Garden
Ras Abu Soma Garden is a protected coral-garden site on the Soma Bay side of the Ras Abu Soma reef system. Divers move across a bright sandy plateau dotted with coral blocks before the terrain falls away into a broader reef edge, so the site stays calm and scenic while still offering enough structure for relaxed guided dives, check dives, and snorkel sessions on quiet days.
