Zainab

Overview

Sunk in 2001, the wreck of Zainab (originally known as The Seasroun Five), can be found off the coast of Dubai. This ship was once a transporter of oil, caught in an interception which led to her unfortune sinking. The vessel now lays 30 metres deep and is a site for advanced level divers. Marine life has taken over the ship, and homes several species of fish such as, yellow snappers, barracudas, and batfish amongst others. This dive is likely to interest those looking to discover Zainab, her history and witness the life surrounding her now.
