About Ras Turgueness
Ras Turgueness is a shallow Djerba boulder site made up of rock blocks and narrow swim-throughs that shelter rays, sponges, and reef fish. It suits easy adaptation and training dives, with straightforward boat access from the Djerba side and a low-stress profile in calm sea conditions. Expect a short, relaxed profile rather than a long, drifting route.
