Overview
El Malek is located north of Makadi Bay. If the boat docks near the reef, you can plan several routes. At this beautiful site, we have a nice, steeply sloping main reef interrupted by a plateau. This can be done between 16 meters and 30 meters. Enjoy a dive on the main reef or glide over the sloping plateau towards the dropoff. Here, you can discover many marine life in a variety of coral formations. Which way you go depends on the current, which usually comes from the north. In any case, you have a high chance of seeing tuna, turtles, eagle rays, and sometimes reef sharks here.
