Dive site Paradise, located in front of the Paradise hotel, is often done in combination with Ras Umm Sid or Fiasco. It differs from nearby dive sites because of the many steep coral pinnacles that rise up from the sandy slope between the reef and the drop-off. The dive is often done as a drift dive, drifting from coral needle to coral block and enjoying all the macroscopic life that lives here. Stingrays and crocodile fish can be spotted in the sand, while the reef is scattered with caves and overhangs. In deeper waters near the drop-off you can see pelagic such as tuna, barracuda, but also turtles and when lucky a manta ray. The deeper waters are also covered with gorgonian fans and fabulous soft coral formations.
