Reqqa Point

Depending on the surge, access is either to the right or the left of the headland, but preferably the dive is conducted by swimming from the right entry around the headland to the left, or west. The reef is cut by numerous fissures, caves and crevices and leads down to a sandy bottom at 25m. The first minutes of the dive better stay shallow and follow the run of the vertical wall until you reach the edge of the reef which points to North-West and leads down stepwise from 30m to 40m and more.

The wonderful view into the clear blue water mixed with the amazing diversity of the marine life of the northern coast is the main attraction of this part of the dive. Large groupers, dentex, all kind of rays and hunting barracudas are very common here and in the aera of the big bolders on the left side of the reef "the lucky one" can find lobsters, morays and also colourful nudibranchs.

Back on the top of the reef in an averge depth of 18m there are always big shoals of damselfish and sardines in "skin-tight" swim formations, which in the sunlight sometimes shimmer like silvery clouds. At the end of the dive, on the wall close to the entry-/exit-point, you can find a nice chimney that leads from 20m to 6m.
