    Abu Dabab VI is a mellow shore dive, well-suited for newer divers or anyone looking for an easy entry. The site is shallow, topping out around 19 meters, with a sandy bottom dotted with small coral heads. You'll often find blue-spotted rays resting on the sand, and we’ve spotted moray eels peeking out from under the coral. It’s a comfortable spot to practice skills or just enjoy a relaxed hour underwater.
