Shaab Ambar, Sudan

Ambar Reef is a large, horseshoe-shaped reef surrounding a lagoon with vertical outer walls. Shaab Ambar is a massive reef system spanning 5 m², with a lagoon in the center that is ideal for night dives and overnight stays. At the southeastern end is a beautiful plateau; on its sandy areas, when the current is moderate, you can find surgeonfish, hunting barracudas, large tuna, sand eels, and small whitetip reef sharks. At the drop-off, if the current permits, you can see schools of hammerhead sharks and gray reef sharks.
