Shaab Abu Dabbab 5

Also known as: Abu Dabbab 5

A typical dive starts on the east side and passes through one of the two tunnels that cut across the reef at around 5 m. Divers then follow the reef edge south to explore the pinnacles before crossing back to the main reef. The pillars carry dense soft and hard corals, and a large anemone with resident clownfish is a regular stop. Nudibranchs are often found, and green turtles, stingrays and occasionally reef sharks are reported.
