Shaab Abu Dabbab 2 & 3

Also known as: Abu Dabbab 2 & 3

The site combines several dive profiles on two reefs. From the north reef table divers swim south to the remains of Heaven One at about 14 m; most of the superstructure has collapsed, but the wreck is still worth a look. On Abu Dabbab 3 a cave crosses the reef and opens onto a coral garden with a red anemone and its clownfish. Pinnacles and coral blocks shelter lionfish, stingrays, moray eels and turtles. The reefs are visited by speedboat or zodiac, and also by day boats from Port Ghalib.
