Khor Habalayn
Why dive here
Khor Habalayn is a dive where divers can encounter blacktip reef sharks, sea turtles and whale sharks. Water ranges 23-34°C, warmest July, August, September.
Khor Habalayn sits just off the coast of Fujairah and makes for a relaxed dive. At a maximum depth of 19 meters, it's a calm spot, ideal if you're newer to diving or just want a chill afternoon under the surface. We often find juvenile barracuda hanging out here, plus the occasional cuttlefish camouflaged against the sandy patches. You'll see a good scattering of smaller reef fish too, like angelfish and parrotfish picking at the coral heads. It’s an easy entry and exit, so great for a leisurely exploration.
