Shab Tag Makadi bay

One named stretch of the mile-long fringing reef along Makadi Bay's north shore, on the Grand Makadi frontage, worked one-way toward Gota Abu Makadi.

The house reef in front of the Fort Arabesque at the north end of Makadi Bay: walk-in over a 40 m sand flat, coral garden at 13-20 m, then a wall that keeps going to 80 m.

The northern end of the Makadi Bay fringing reef, entered off the resort jetty because the reef flat here is too shallow to wade across.

A long jetty in Makadi Bay that drops you straight onto the reef edge at 5 to 6 m, then a gently sloping wall you follow north or south.

The hotel house-reef entry at the Royal Azur end of Makadi Bay: sandy walk-in, a short swim, then a fringing wall to about 15 m.

The erg field on the south side of Abu Hashish: two big coral blocks with a scatter of smaller ones around them, worked down to about 30 m.
