Average Depth: 18m - Maximum Depth: 30m

description :

Located at the south from the Gorgonion II site. Very flat sloping reef, starting from 12m and gently slops to more than 30m depth. The Canyon has a sandy bottom and drops to depth over 40m. At 5m depth is the shell of a tank, sunken in 1999 by King Abdullah. The tank was produced in the fifties by Cadillac, American Car and Foundry. This is also attraction for snorkels, 30m from the shoreline.

Rating: Good for diving and snorkeling.

Corals: Plenty of healthy hard and soft corals, like cabbage coral, large spherical coral heads.

Fish Life: Eel moray, lionfish, scorpion fish, and green turtles can be seen.
