White Rock (Jazirat Kaysah) - Fujairah
White Rock is a good spot in Fujairah, a decent pinnacle dive that rarely disappoints for a couple of reasons. Dropping down, you’ll find plenty of moray eels poking out from crevices, and the resident stingrays are usually easy to spot gliding across the sandy patches. We often see schools of snapper and barracuda hanging around the main rock. It’s a pretty straightforward dive, maxing out at 18 metres, making it a comfortable intermediate dive and a solid choice for a second tank.
