The seagrass meadow in the flat of the bay serves as the primary buffet for the area's larger inhabitants. Giant Green turtles that accustomed to divers and can be seen grazing peacefully on the seabed. The completely harmless shark like bow-mouth guitarfish are frequently found resting on the shallow sandy bottoms. And if you are extremely lucky, dugongs occasionally cruise through the shallow meadow. When you have had enough time on the seagrass the fringing coral walls, that shelter the bay at each end, feature colourful hard and soft coral gardens, small swim-through canyons, and caves teeming with classic Red Sea reef fish.
