This dive site is located on the northwest side of Amouliani, offering a diving experience suitable for divers of all levels. The water depth gradually descends from 3 meters to a maximum of 40 meters. Upon entering the water, you’ll be immediately immersed in a vibrant underwater world teeming with schools of open-sea fish like groupers and snappers. As you continue your descent, remarkable horseshoe-shaped rocks, covered in sponges and minute marine life, emerge – creating an ethereal landscape resembling an ancient theatre stage. These formations provide stunning photo opportunities. Keep an eye out for camouflaged octopuses, watchful morays, and congers. For those willing to explore deeper, lobsters and crayfish await discovery at the very bottom. The area is known for its diverse marine life and unique geological features.
