Scuba

Sanganeb is a stunning and isolated coral atoll, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Its steep drop-offs and pristine coral reefs attract a huge amount of marine life, including large schools of fish and a very healthy population of sharks.

Features

A large atoll with sheer walls and two plateaus. The reefs are in exceptional condition due to the lack of tourism. The North and South plateaus are fantastic spots for seeing grey reef sharks, hammerheads, and other pelagic species.
