About this site
Catalog

Sha'ab Sernaka is a sheltered reef in Fury Shoals with gently sloping plateaus and a sandy lagoon dotted with hard-coral pinnacles and ergs. The calm, shallow conditions make it ideal for relaxed dives, training and night dives, with regular sightings of green and hawksbill turtles, moray eels and abundant reef fish. Its protected position keeps it diveable in most weather.
