Why dive here
Ruqq Musfayr is a reef dive where divers can encounter dolphins, sea turtles and whale sharks. Water ranges 22-35°C, warmest July, August, September.
Ruqq Musfayr offers a decent enough reef dive off the coast of Dubai, a solid option when you're looking for something other than wrecks. The corals here, while not exactly bursting with colour, do provide shelter for a good variety of smaller reef fish. You'll likely spot parrotfish grazing, angelfish darting between the bommies, and we've even seen the occasional moray eel peeking out. It's a pretty relaxed dive, good for knocking off the rust or for those newer to exploring natural reefs in the region.
