Habili Gafar

Also known as: Habili Gaffar · Habili Gafaar · Habilli Gaffar

The reef top is only about 30 m across, so divers can circle it two or three times or zigzag up one side depending on the current. A ledge runs around the reef at 20 to 35 m before the wall drops into deep water, and a small spur on the north side reaches 40 m. That northern side is where snapper, barracuda, tuna and reef sharks gather in the current, and hammerheads and mantas are possible. The shallower sections are covered in pink soft corals with clouds of fairy basslets, and schools of mackerel sweep over the top.
