Known for its vibrant coral formations and diverse marine life, this site is a dream for both experienced divers and those looking for a unique diving experience in the Red Sea.

An Underwater Paradise
Habili Nakari is a small pinnacle reef that rises from the seabed, offering a striking underwater landscape filled with beautiful corals and an abundance of marine life. Divers will be captivated by the vivid colors of the reef, which hosts both hard and soft coral species. The top of the reef is shallow, but as you descend, you’ll discover a variety of fish species such as snappers, groupers, and fusiliers swimming in large schools. The occasional presence of barracudas and tuna adds excitement to the dive.

A Dive for the Adventurous
This dive site is best suited for intermediate to advanced divers due to its depth and occasional strong currents.

The currents bring a wealth of pelagic species, and you might even spot eagle rays, reef sharks, or a passing manta ray if the conditions are right.
