About Hole in the Wall Fujairah
Hole in the Wall Fujairah is a shallow boat dive on a rocky reef system, with a tunnel, outer wall, and sandy patches that make the terrain the main attraction. The swim-through is the signature feature, but the site also works as a scenic circuit around the rock and out over the bottom. Access is usually through licensed dive centres from Al Aqah or Khor Fakkan, so plan it as an operator-run day rather than a standalone shore stop.
