Why dive here
Qabriyah lies in a species-rich stretch of Yanbu, with 60+ marine species recorded in the area. Water sits around 26°C.
Iliuliuk Reef isn't your typical tropical escape. Think cold water, rugged beauty, and a surprising amount of life. We've seen giant octopuses peeking out from rocky crevices and the vivid purple of sunflower stars clinging to the substrate. Keep an eye on the surface, too, because orcas sometimes cruise through, and the gulls and cormorants are always putting on a show. It's a dive for those who appreciate the raw, wild side of the ocean.
