    Siyoul Kebir offers a straightforward dive to 19 metres, well suited for beginners or those getting back in the water. We typically find various reef fish here, going about their day among the hard corals. It's a reliable spot for an easy, shallow profile without strong currents, making it a good choice for a check dive or a relaxed second dive of the day.
