Diving Highlights

 

Dolphin Reef

Under the directions of a guide, divers can interact with the family of Dolphins that inhabit the area. The best time to visit the complex is early in the day, before many divers have been on site, this is when the Dolphins are at their most inquisitive and visibility is at its best.

Moses Rock

Shore dive in only 7 metres of water, with an approximate 400 metres underwater swim from the beach area, but lots to see getting there. The fish life is absolutely prolific here, a veritable paradise for underwater photographers.

Japanese Gardens (Boat Dive)

The depth here can vary from 12 - 47 metres. This reef and all areas nearby, fall under the authority of the Israeli Nature Reserve and there is usually a limit to the number of divers allowed to dive the site each day. However, if you have the opportunity, take it because the coral formations are absolutely stunning with fish life in abundance.
