Umm Al Fayyarin (Mother Of Mouse) - Fujairah

Umm Al Fayyarin, or Mother Of Mouse, offers a solid dive for those exploring Fujairah. We usually find ourselves dropping onto a rocky reef that slopes down to around 24 meters, perfect for intermediate divers looking for a relaxed bottom time. The real draw here often comes from the schooling fish – think fusiliers darting around, and we’ve seen barracuda circling in the blue. Keep an eye out for moray eels tucked into the crevices and the occasional turtle gliding past. It's a reliable site for a good look at the local reef life without any major challenges.
