Martini is a large submerged rock covered in Teddy Bear Coral, and teaming with marine life making this the best dive site in the UAE.

Turtles, Morays shoals of Arabian Mackerel, Snapper, Damsel Fish and Sergeant Majors make up the marine life here.

Dive this site over 500 times and you would still find something new to see.

Shark Island offers three great dive sites Shark bay, Shark North and Shark South.

South and North are both sloping wall dives (not vertical) made up of huge boulders that hide Morays including large Honey Combs and also Green Turtles. North also has Sea Horses and large Rays in the sand. South has the added bonus of Black Tip reef sharks on the point of the island between October and April. Both sites have had Whale shark and leopard shark sightings in the past.

Shark Bay is a hard coral dive and has a maximum depth of 7m making it fantastic for Discover Dives and young divers who have depth restrictions. Turtles are nearly always on this site, and in season you can spend the last 10 min of the dive with the Black Tips.

Coral Gardens is our local deep dive site, situated 150m East of Shark Island.

The site is made up from large boulders covered in a fantastic Green Whip Coral (black coral).

Perfect for the avid Macro photographer who loves Sea Horses, Jaw fish and Moray Eels. There are plenty of shoaling fish for the odd wide angle image and some pretty big 2-3m Cow Tail rays in the sandy sections.

For those using DPV's or on ENX you can leave this site and reach Anenome Gardens getting two dive sites for the price of one.

Anemone Gardens is the same as Coral Gardens only not as deep.

Once again this is a perfect site for photographers as it offers wide angle and Macro opportunities.

This site even has the infamous Sea Horse Alley, the old Coast Guard mooring at a depth of 21.6m amongst the old ropes you can see several Sea Horses.

The dive plan leaves you in the shallow section around 13m on a large rock pile that has a large resident Honey Comb Moray Eel on it.

Hole in the Wall is a dive site only we dive, and is fantastic for its marine life.

Called Hole in the Wall as it has a long swim through that can be a squeeze when the resident turtle is in the hole!

Black Tips Sharks are on the site, Bat Fish, Rays, Barracuda, the list goes on.

Best dived at high tide but still offers alot on low water, this site is bigger than it looks, and takes the full 50 Min to go all the way around it.

Inchcape 2 donated by the Inchcape Shipping company.

Paul put this wreck down in 2002, the second wreck from the Inchcape company but she no longer looks like she first did as we lost the wheel house after the Gono Cyclone in 2007.

This wreck is used for Wreck Speciality as it is perfect for penetration and she is also dived most weekends for the 1st dive of the day.

Snapper fill the wreck sometimes making hard to see the hull, Puffer fish and Cornet fish stick close to the deck, whilst the Nudies sit on the rails.

This small 22m wreck has all a diver needs, and never lets us down so much so she is our preferred night dive site.

This is a great dive either from Martini Rock or Inchcape 2 and can be full of surprises. 

This site has alot of Whale Shark sightings- more than Dibba but as it is not dived by other dive centres, that fact is not really known.

If you don't see the Whale Shark there are Black Tips here all year and Green Turtles with the odd Hawks Bill every now and again.

Sea Horses can be found in the many piles of old rope coils and Jaw fish can be seen in their impressive holes made in the sand.

Great dive that will bring a smile to your face.

Ras Quidfa like Martini wall, except as you round the corner and head into the shallow section (5m) you can see some nice mountain and branch coral.

Black Tips are here all year also and they live in the shallow section towards the beach.

This seems to be big Ray country like Car Cemetery and they can be seen in the sand, normally the big sand cloud gives them away.

Take a load of old cars, trucks, buses and the odd dumper truck some 15 years ago and throw them in the sea! 

That is Car Cemetery, and what a great dive even if it can prove a little tricky to navigate for the odd diver or two!

Expect big Rays and Turtles, shoals of Trevally and Barracuda circling the whole site.

Inchcape 1 another vessel supplied by Inchcape Shipping Services in 2001 and sank by us when we were operating another company hence why it is so far North.

Like Inchcape 2 Gono destroyed the wheel house but did not move the vessel.

There are some big Barracuda, Trevally and Sweet Lips on this wreck and it has had the odd larger shark on her as well.

Great to dive this on Nitrox which we can provide if you are certified and ordered ahead.

Three rocks or Sharm with the largest in the middle and the shallowest rock supporting a large Coral Reef makes this a great dive when there is good vissibility. 

Turtles, Black Tips and Barracuda are often seen here, and it makes a nice dive for photographers who like wide angle shots in the shallower sections.

This like Inchcape 1 is 20 Min North of our centre.
