Description:

“Little Mountain” Dahab’s most southern dive site. This site consists of a coral mountain rising up from the depths to only a couple of meters under the surface. Several satellite reefs connect the shore with a sandy plateau. The dive normally starts at the south side of the mountain where you can normally find shoals of snappers and trevallies, the coral here is very healthy and diverse. From here you spiral downwards around the mountain after which you are swimming along a vertical drop off. After about five minutes, you will come across several satellite reefs packed with both soft and hard corals of all varieties at around 20 m. Return the dive over the sandy plateau where you usually come across some blue spotted stingrays. You can also find a small turtle here. Finish the dive with a safety stop hovering above the mountain.
