Underwater Coral Restaurant is an advanced dive site in Eilat, Israel, located near the famous Underwater Observatory Marine Park. The site descends to 12 meters along a reef slope featuring some of Eilat's most accessible and colorful coral formations. Despite its whimsical name referencing the nearby tourist attraction, this is a genuine dive site with excellent hard coral diversity and abundant fish life. The reef here benefits from the protection afforded by the marine park, resulting in healthy coral colonies and confident marine life that approaches divers closely. Schools of anthias create vivid color displays above the coral heads, while pufferfish, lionfish, and moray eels are reliable residents. The shallow maximum depth belies the advanced rating, which reflects occasional current exposure in this section of Eilat's coast. This site offers a charming dive that combines the visual spectacle of a healthy Red Sea reef with the quirky character that makes Eilat's dive scene uniquely welcoming.
