Lima Rock North

Lima Rock is the first offshore island boats reach when heading north from Dibba, lying about 1.5 km off Ras Lima. Its northern face combines slopes and walls covered in coral and is riddled with swim-throughs, with a cavern near the western tip. Turtles, stingrays, scorpionfish, stonefish and electric rays are regular sightings, and schools of batfish and trevally gather off the western point. Sheesa Beach suggests diving it in the afternoon for the light, and choosing it instead of the southern side when current is running there.
