Tawakul (Jazirat Abu Rashid)
Why dive here
Tawakul (Jazirat Abu Rashid) is a dive where divers can encounter blacktip reef sharks, sea turtles and whale sharks. Water ranges 23-34°C, warmest July, August, September.
Tawakul, sometimes known as Jazirat Abu Rashid, offers a decent dive off Fujairah's coast. It's a site we find pretty straightforward, dropping to around 25 metres, making it a good pick for intermediate divers looking for something a bit deeper than some of the shallower sites nearby. You'll typically encounter reef fish going about their day, and we've had some nice sightings of moray eels poking out from crevices. It's not the kind of place that will blow your mind, but it’s a solid dive for getting wet and enjoying the underwater landscape.
