Description:

Ras Bob is a very sheltered dive site with mixed fauna und suitable for all diving levels, as normally has no currents. There is no arabic name for this site, as it was named after a the underwater cameraman Bob Johnson, who worked for many years as Diving Instructor in Sharm el Sheikh. Ras Bob`s interesting part is between 5 and 15 m. The underwater landscape is determined by many small bays with sand floor, gullies and small caves. Hint for uw-photographers: Ras Bob is an ideal site to search for juvenile reef fishes. On the sandy patches you can observe bluespotted stingrays and crocodile fish. The reef, both east and west from the mooring is covered with many different types of stony and soft corals.
