Dive sites in Kuwait

Kubbar Island is an uninhabited coral sand cay located in the Persian Gulf off the southern coast of Kuwait. The island is surrounded by fringing patch reefs dominated by brain and acropora hard coral formations. Divers explore shallow coral gardens that drop off gently onto sandy bottoms, offering one of the few natural coral reef habitats in Kuwaiti waters.

Located well offshore in Kuwaiti waters, Qarooh Island features fringing patch reefs surrounded by shallow sandy slopes. The surrounding reef structure provides a critical refuge for hard coral formations and nesting sea turtles in the northern Persian Gulf.

Situated around Kuwait's smallest offshore coral island, this site features a shallow fringing reef ecosystem surrounded by open waters of the Persian Gulf. Hard coral structures, including brain and tabular coral formations, step down into sandy flats where rays and reef predators roam. It serves as an important nesting and foraging ground for sea turtles in Kuwaiti waters.
