The Emirates have firmly joined our consciousness as luxury hotels, expensive boutiques and the world's tallest skyscrapers, but we should not deny ourselves other pleasures of the Arab holiday. And this, of course, is diving in the UAE, offering unforgettable underwater trips.
Cement barge
The dive site is located just off the Dubai coast. Here, at a shallow depth, no more than 10 meters, there is a submerged barge. Relatively recently, it was one of the most popular places where underwater life simply boiled. But construction work, actively carried out on the coast of the country, simply scared away all the fish. And now the wreck is most often used as a place for training beginners.

Here, at a depth of twenty-three meters, there is a submerged platform designed for oil production. Thanks to the shallow depths, divers were able to explore all its nooks and crannies, as well as inspect the floating crane. Visibility in the waters here is not very good, as the bottom is rather silted. Not far from the wreck there is a tugboat, which is very often visited by beginners in diving.
Rock "Martini"
It is a small reef located in Korfakkan, the surface of which is almost completely covered with colorful corals. The dive site also pleases with its shallow depths, no more than 20 meters. Numerous fish have chosen the reef as their home, hiding in its crevices. Here you can find eels, many moray eels, turtles and tiger fish. The rock rises above the surface of the water and here you can have a great rest after an exciting dive.
Rack "Inchcape 2"
The boat sank back in 2001, having plunged 22 meters. Now it is a marine reef that has become home to numerous marine life. Eels that have established huge colonies here, dog fish and lucines - all this makes the dive very interesting. The wreck is completely covered in soft coral, which makes night diving an incredible adventure.
Shark island
This unusual name gave the island its resemblance to a shark's fin. These rocks, located in the waters of the Indian Ocean, have been chosen as their home by numerous inhabitants of the underwater world. Stingrays love to relax here, many lobsters hide behind stones, and fish, completely oblivious to them, scurry about busily, going about their business.
Car graveyard
If you go on a boat trip from Korfakan, then choosing the northern direction you can get to a completely unique dive-sai - a man-made reef, the material for which became flooded cars. And now a huge number of marine life live here, observing the life of which is a special pleasure.
