Eel Garden
La profundidad indica el rango desde la parte superior del punto hasta su máximo habitual; la "certificación recomendada" es el nivel que los operadores suelen exigir según las principales agencias, no una norma legal. Las corrientes y la visibilidad cambian a diario — considera todo esto como rangos de planificación.
Hundreds of garden eels lean out of a pale sand slope here like grass in wind, retracting in a slow wave as divers approach and rising again behind them. That simple spectacle, ten minutes' walk from Dahab's cafes, is the point of the dive - but the coral gardens framing the sand hold their own interest: anthias mist over porites heads, octopus hunt the rubble line in late afternoon, and unicornfish hang mid-water off the drop. The site works best shallow and slow; skilled guides route it so the eels appear at the turn, with the sun behind. When the north wind builds, surge across the reef-flat entry makes timing the exit the only real skill required.
El momento por el que vienes: The garden-eel colony at full extension; relaxed second-dive pace; walkable logistics.
Topografía: White sand tongue sloping between coral gardens
Entrada: A sandy channel through the reef flat at the north end of Masbat; surge can close the entry on windy days.
Lo que debes saber antes de tirarte al agua
