Egypt
Sama, as the site is also known, is the Arabic word for 'heaven', and the spot is also nicknamed Anemone City. It consists of two small reefs, and between them lies a large anemone city, which gives the site that nickname. The reef runs from east to west, can be dived in its entirety in 45 minutes, and its east side is split by a small canyon. In that canyon there is a huge amount of anemones with clownfish, while on the west side the coral blocks are covered with soft corals and gorgonians, and the longnose hawkfish can be found there. The site also has table corals and many pinnacles, and it is packed with fish.
