About this site

Known as Blind Reef, Shabroah Siyul is an isolated reef rising from deep water that nearly disappears at high tide, attracting pelagic action along its current-swept walls. Tuna, barracuda and jacks cruise the blue while moray eels, lionfish and crocodile fish hide in the wall. Strong currents and the exposed position make it an intermediate-to-advanced drift.
