This dive spot was named after King Abdullah II and it is an excellent dive spot, great for beginners due to a depth of up to 23 meters and to being sheltered. This also means that King Abdullah Reef has very little to no current which might hinder the divers. Furthermore, the visibility at King Abdullah Reef is excellent, exceeding 30 meters.

Head across the sand to a large circular reef with a Gorgonia Fan coral in center. Continue down to 24m where shoaling Pennant Fish have a “permanent” home. Ascend slowly in a circle and watch territorial displays Parrot Fish till you reach 10m.

This is a popular reef with fan corals for divers to see with a beautiful fan coral on top of the reef. When the view clears, we see turtles and blue-spotted stingrays cruising the bottom you might see a large shoal of Pennant fish, Torpedo Rays.
