A shallow Musandam wreck dive on a deliberately sunk dhow near Khasab, set in the fjord approach to Khawr Shamm. The compact wreck sits over a sandy bottom and offers an easy-to-read profile with coral growth, fish shelter, and no swim-throughs. It is best planned with a local boat crew, because wind, rain, and changing water movement can quickly affect visibility and comfort at the surface.
