Amphoras

A drift dive near Ras Umm Sid named after the scattered cargo of a Turkish ship (dated by sources to the 16th–17th century) that carried amphoras of mercury. An old anchor and amphora fragments lie at about 22–25 m behind two coral towers, while the sandy plateau with coral pinnacles is a spot for eagle rays and turtles.

depth: 5–25 m
