Best time to visit
Early morning or late afternoon is the best time, as the water is clear and the light is perfect for seeing the fish. The weather from November to March is most favorable.
Budget tips
There is no entry fee to come here, but you will have to pay for boat rides and gear rental from local hotels or diving centers. Negotiate in advance for boat trips or go in a group so the per person cost can be lower.

About
Quick facts: Located a short distance from the coast of Fujairah, this rocky islet is a paradise for snorkeling enthusiasts. Over 100 different kinds of colorful fish and marine life are found here, making it an excellent spot for diving and snorkeling.
Highlights: The special thing here is that this rock is part of a protected marine park, where turtles, eagle rays, and even occasional whale sharks can be seen. This colorful underwater world, with bright corals and schools of fish swimming among them, feels like a living painting.
Insider tips
- Bring a waterproof camera or GoPro with you; underwater photos are the most precious memories here.
- Check the life jacket and snorkeling gear in advance. Many tour operators provide gear, but it is better to bring your own snorkel.
- To avoid crowds, go on weekdays (Tuesday or Wednesday); there are a lot of people on weekends.
- Do not forget to apply sunscreen, but try to use reef-friendly sunscreen so as not to harm the corals.
