    The End of the World site off Dar es Salaam is a gentle slope, perfect for a relaxed dive. We’ve drifted along here often, spotting reef fish, moray eels tucked into the rock formations, and occasional rays gliding past. It’s an easy-going dive, well-suited for newer divers or anyone looking for a calm afternoon underwater. Visibility can vary, but we often get a decent 15 meters on a good day.
