Ras Bob
This site was named as a tribute to an underwater camera-man, Bob Johnson, who worked in the area for many years. It is sheltered from the waves and wind and usually has weak currents.
You can make this dive as a drift or as a mooring dive. There are many small bays with light colored sandy floors in which you will see numerous small caves.
