    CharacterReef dive

    Reeks Reef is a gentle Dahab shore dive, often a good second or third dive of the day when you're looking for something relaxed. The entry is easy, usually a short walk in from the shore. Once in, you'll find a sloping reef with plenty of staghorn coral, where small giant clams tuck themselves amongst the branches. Keep an eye out for the African eel blenny, they're often spotted peeking from sandy patches. It’s a solid spot for photographers keen on macro subjects or divers just wanting an easy cruise.
