Gordon Reef is the most southern reef in the Straits of Tiran. You'll find shallow plateaus, with the top of the reef sections of the damaged Luilla wreck. This wreck is also called the Lovilla. It sank on September 1981. The vegetation here is mixed. Hard corals are interspersed with a gradual descent of soft corals and huge gorgonians.
Particulars
Permanent residents of the Gordon Reef are napoleon fish, blue spotted stingrays and trigger fish. On the sandy plateaus you'll also see eels and in the depths sometimes white tip reef sharks swim by.
