Max. depth 90m, 55min. journey
This demanding site on the east side of Small Giftun is only done as a drift dive. First the drop off is vertical descending and enormous, giant Gorgonias are stretching into the current. After 200m you reach a plateau with Table corals and Fire corals, starting at 25m and ascending towards the reef to 16m. This has to be crossed to reach the boat, which is anchoring at Giftun Soraya. Because of the depth and the current this dive is only suitable for experienced divers.
Giftun Soraya
Max. depth 25m, 55min. journey
The stone coral covered reef shows a lot of wholes and small caverns, which give shelter for Giant murays, Scorpion fishes and Octopus. Frequently you find whole families of Napoleons
