Why dive here
Shaab Said North is a reef dive where divers can encounter dolphins, humpback whales, oceanic whitetip sharks, sea turtles and spinner dolphins. Water ranges 23-31°C, warmest July, August, September.
Shaab Said North is a decent choice for a drift dive when conditions allow. We've seen a few different dolphin species here, though sightings are never guaranteed. It's an open reef, so expect pelagic encounters more than intricate reef exploration. Good for divers who enjoy covering ground and keeping an eye on the blue.
