Tobia Al Saghaira

Overview

Tobia Al Saghaira, located just 15 minutes by speedboat from Soma Bay, offers a delightful diving experience. This site is characterized by two lines of ergs rising from a sandy seabed, creating stunning underwater structures. It’s a haven for marine life, with schools of bannerfish and goatfish drifting in the gentle currents. At the seabed, blue-spotted rays, crocodile fish, and lionfish are commonly spotted, while surgeonfish and unicorn fish patrol the top of the reef.

The dive site is not only beautiful but also offers plenty of interaction opportunities with diverse marine species. Divers can observe glassfish and silversides hiding in reef crevices, avoiding predators such as groupers and scorpionfish. The site is well-known for its cleaning stations, where smaller fish perform their "manicure" service on larger species.

Thanks to its relatively shallow depth of 15 meters and tranquil conditions, Tobia Al Saghaira is suitable for both beginners and intermediate divers. The reef's diverse marine population and colorful landscape make it a favorite among underwater photographers. The vibrant life surrounding the ergs provides a visual spectacle, and the abundance of marine species ensures a rewarding dive every time.

Whether you are a first-time diver or have more experience, Tobia Al Saghaira offers a rich and varied underwater experience that will leave you with unforgettable memories of your dive in Soma Bay.
