They are harmless creatures, but be careful not to touch or step on them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The clear water serves as a massive playground for many different types of colourful fish. After completing the Fish Identification Specialty course, you&#8217;ll have fun identifying species you&#8217;ll encounter underwater. Common sites include picasso, sergeant major, parrotfish, cardinalfish, snapper, angelfish, boxfish, triggerfish, surgeonfish, and butterflyfish. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is always a pleasure to see hawksbill, green, and other gliding turtles in these waters. In the island&#8217;s northeast corner, you will most likely encounter sea turtles at depths of 4-5 metres. This is where the more enormous boulders and brain coral clusters are. Unfortunately, these beloved creatures are vulnerable to pollution, climate change, entanglement by fishing gear, and poaching. Nemo Diving Center promotes sustainable diving tours to support global conservation efforts to save sea turtles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you see a pack of jacks, a barracuda may be hunting nearby. The barracuda&#8217;s thin, long body is designed for speed. These predators hunt primarily by sight and do not miss an opportunity to stop a mackerel from a group.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Chill_at_Sandy_Beach_Hotel\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chill at Sandy Beach Hotel<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5550\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5550\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5550 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sandy-Beach-Hotel.jpg\" alt=\"Sandy Beach Hotel in snoopy island\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sandy-Beach-Hotel.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sandy-Beach-Hotel-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sandy-Beach-Hotel-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5550\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credits : Agoda<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Travellers seeking rest and relaxation should check out the Sandy Beach Hotel.

This can be done by kayak or stand-up paddleboard. However, be careful as the sea can be very rough on the east coast of the UAE. Snorkelling in big waves is not recommended because the waves crash quickly and violently against the rocks of Snoopy Island.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Some Useful Articles for you :<\/strong><\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 98.6233%; height: 96px;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"height: 24px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 49.273%; height: 24px;\" width=\"301\"><strong>Guide To UAE Tourist Places<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 80.6139%; height: 24px;\" width=\"301\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/uae-tourist-places-top-choice-in-winters-trmart\">UAE Tourist Places<\/a><\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 24px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 49.273%; height: 24px;\" width=\"301\"><strong>All About Burj Al Arab Tour<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 80.6139%; height: 24px;\" width=\"301\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/burj-al-arab-tour-trmart\">Burj Al Arab Tour<\/a><\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 24px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 49.273%; height: 24px;\"><strong>Know The Places To Visit in Umm Al Quwain<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 80.6139%; height: 24px;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/places-to-visit-in-umm-al-quwain-trmart\">Places To Visit in Umm Al Quwain<\/a><\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 24px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 49.273%; height: 24px;\"><strong>Explore Tourist Places in UAE<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 80.6139%; height: 24px;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/tourist-places-in-the-uae-trmart\">Tourist Places in UAE<\/a><\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_Asked_Question_FAQs\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Frequently Asked Question (FAQs)\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\t\t<section class=\"sc_fs_faq sc_card \">\n\t\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t\t<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_Shark_Island_accessible\"><\/span>Is Shark Island accessible?
