Ras Bashin is a good choice if you're looking for a relaxed dive in Fujairah. The site generally maxes out at around 20 metres, making it quite comfortable for newer divers or those who just want to take it easy. We’ve found the gentle slope here often has small groups of lionfish hanging out, and sometimes you’ll spot a turtle cruising past the soft corals. It's a nice spot for an unhurried afternoon dive, especially if the other sites are a bit busy.
