About Ras Lima
Ras Lima is a Musandam boat reef with a sloping profile, coral gardens, and a wall edge that can pick up current. It is a strong macro and night-dive site when the sea is calm, with busy-traffic awareness needed near the wall and reef line. The site is usually dived with local operators from the Dibba side, and the easier reef profile makes it a comfortable choice for guided drift-style diving in the right conditions.
