    Fasht ‘Azīzī offers a decent reef dive in the waters off Dubai. It's one of those spots where you often see more going on than you might expect, with schools of snappers and barracuda frequently cruising by. The coral formations here are hardy, adapted to the local conditions, and provide plenty of nooks for moray eels and lobsters to hide. It's a reliable choice for a straightforward dive when you're in the area, suitable for most experience levels looking for some solid reef action without a big challenge.
