★★★★☆ (61)

The site is located in Ghoubbet al-Kharab, a Djiboutian cove separated from the Gulf of Tadjourah by a channel with strong currents. The anchorage area is protected, visibility is excellent and currents are variable.

Dive between two tectonic plates! A memorable dive into the submerged depths of the planet, at the end of which you will be able to observe sublime hard corals.
