Sharm Rocks

Located off the coast of Al Aqah, Sharm Rocks – sometimes referred to as ‘3 Rocks’ – are represented by three main pinnacles peering through the surface of the water. A fourth outcrop does also exist; however this is less frequented during trips. At a maximum depth of 15 metres, this dive site is recommended for all levels and is moreover a suggested snorkelling location in the shallower waters. This reef, covered in soft coral is home to populous marine life such as, mackerel, jaw fish, fusiliers, lionfish and boxfish. In similar regard, cuttlefish and turtles can be spotted.
