Sodfa

Sodfa means 'coincidence' in Arabic: Circle Divers tells that two early guides jumped in thinking they were at another site and found it looked just the same. The reef wall gives way to a sandy slope with pinnacles, table corals and massive porites, and big gorgonian fans line the drop-off. The dive can head west towards Tower or east towards Ras Sodfa, the eastern route offering more coral and fish. Emperor Divers notes that mantas often pass between March and June, sometimes with a whitetip reef shark.
