About this site
Martini Rock is a reef dive in a bay with a beach near Khor Fakkan, on the east coast of the UAE in the Fujairah area. A sloping reef starts at around 10 m and goes down to about 22 m.
The site is known for its coral gardens, with hard and soft corals and sponges across the slope.
Rays, turtles and a large variety of reef fish and other creatures live here. Leopard sharks and turtles are seen occasionally.

Current is moderate and visibility is good, often exceeding 20 m in the area. The site is often combined with Hole in the Wall as a two-tank trip, and it suits intermediate divers. The sloping profile lets you work down gradually from the 10 m start.
