Why dive here
Sannat Bay is a reef dive where divers can encounter blacktip reef sharks, sea turtles and whale sharks. Water ranges 23-34°C, warmest July, August, September.
Sannat Bay is one of those Fujairah spots we often hit when we’re looking for a relaxed, easy dive. It’s a shallow reef, topping out around 12 meters, making it ideal for beginners or anyone wanting a longer bottom time without much fuss. You’ll find patches of hard coral here, scattered across a sandy bottom, where we often spot stingrays tucked away and plenty of damselfish darting about. While it doesn't boast huge pelagics, it’s a solid, calm dive for getting comfortable in the water or just unwinding.
