About this site

Tobia Soraya consists of two parallel reefs separated by a sandy channel, studded with small ergs that rise toward the surface at around 15 m. The structure shelters colourful reef life, great barracuda and schooling fish in the protected lagoon between the reefs. Any current normally arrives from the north, and the moderate depth suits a wide range of divers.
