Why dive here
Siyal South 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.
Siyal South offers an interesting mix of seagrass beds and open water. We've often spotted pods of Long-beaked and Bridled Dolphins here, particularly in the mornings. It’s a good spot for divers keen on marine mammals rather than typical reef scenes, especially if you enjoy drift dives.
