Gota Kebir

Also known as: Gota Kebira · Gotta Kebira · Gotta Kebir · Big Gota · Big Gotta

The reef is more than 800 m long, which allows several different drift dives around it. On the north side two plateaus split the current and are the best place to look for grey reef, whitetip, thresher and hammerhead sharks, and occasionally oceanic whitetips. The east and west sides slope steeply and are dominated by soft corals, while the south-east corner has deep fissures and tunnels that divers can enter. The southern plateau and the shallows, with anemones, unicornfish, rabbitfish and green turtles, make easier parts of the dive. Its walls drop beyond 100 m.
