Overview
Dive into the calm waters around this small, oval reef, often called an underwater paradise. Below, the sandy bottom gradually slopes down to about 12 to 15 meters deep, making it great for exploring.
To the west, you'll see two big hills called ergs, standing out against the blue sea. On the east side, there are two blocks of coral surrounded by a beautiful garden of colorful corals.
While you're underwater, you'll meet lots of different sea creatures. Look out for groups of bannerfish and butterflyfish gliding gracefully, and surgeonfish and triggerfish darting around the coral. Keep your eyes open for moray eels hiding in cracks and crevices, adding some mystery to your dive.
But there's more to see at Gota Abu Ramada than just coral. If you're lucky, you might spot small white-tip reef sharks, eagle rays, or even leopard sharks, making your dive even more exciting.
