ras za'atar

Most northern dive of Ras Mohammed National Park, it is the southern entrance to the bay of Marsa Bareika. Where the steep wall of Ras Mohammed, with caves and overhangs, meets the gentle slope of the bay of Marsa Bareika, and is scattered with colorful coral heads.

Head north along the wall amongst big overhangs and dark gullies, the wall is swathed in sea fans, gorgonians and the odd sprig of black coral. Just before the corner look out for the chimney at 15m home to malabar grouper. Look closer and find the cleaning stations with the
    wrasse and shrimp in attendance. Don’t forget to check out the blue for schools of barracuda and
     jacks or the odd eagle ray cruising by.
