Ras Um Halg
Why dive here
With 52+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, humpback whales, oceanic whitetip sharks, spinner dolphins and whale sharks - Ras Um Halg offers some of Deep South's richest reef diving. Water ranges 22-31°C, warmest July, August, September.
Ras Um Halg gives you a chance to drift along a gentle wall, watching the reef unfold. The maximum depth of 20m makes it a relaxed intermediate dive. We've often found ourselves eye-level with curious groupers here, and the soft corals provide plenty of texture against the blue. It’s a good spot for a second dive or when you want something less demanding.
