About Yellow Stone Reef

Yellow Stone Reef is a shallow Aqaba reef named for a yellow pinnacle that stands out from the surface. The site mixes several pinnacles with sand channels and seagrass patches, letting divers weave between reef heads and open sand. It’s a good choice for slow, exploratory laps and macro spotting, with the yellow pinnacle as an easy navigation reference. Shore or boat access is used depending on operator logistics and sea state.
