Why dive here
Ras Qidfa is a dive where divers can encounter blacktip reef sharks, sea turtles and whale sharks. Water ranges 23-34°C, warmest July, August, September.
Ras Qidfa offers a straightforward dive, often a good second dive after the nearby Inchcape 1. We typically see a few turtles here, sometimes resting on the small coral patches. It’s a pretty gentle dive, suitable for divers wanting something relaxed and relatively shallow, with visibility usually around 10 to 15 meters. You might spot moray eels tucked into crevices, but don't expect anything too dramatic.
