Falcon rock
Why dive here
Falcon rock is a pinnacle dive where divers can encounter blacktip reef sharks, sea turtles and whale sharks. Water ranges 23-34°C, warmest July, August, September.
We always enjoy a dive out at Falcon Rock, a pinnacle that rises pretty dramatically from the seafloor off Fujairah. It’s a site that suits newer divers well, especially with its maximum depth of 29 meters, making it accessible for those just beyond open water certification. You’ll often find schools of barracuda hanging around the top of the pinnacle, and down in the sandy patches, we sometimes spot a stingray or two. Keep an eye out for moray eels tucked into the crevices; they’re pretty common here. It’s a solid option for an easy, pleasant dive when you’re in the area.
