Made it out to Abu Thalma this past Friday. Nice dive site; cannot imagine anything better in the area. Depth was rather shallow, averaging 36'. Water varied between 86F on the reef, and dropped ~10F off. The reef is relatively healthy with tropical fish. Saw plenty of clown fish, snapper, couple cuttlefish, a large ray (~8-9'), small ray (~2'), two turtles - one large the other small, large hard corals, and other assorted bits.
Boat ride was about 1:45 each way. Long, but not unbearable. Worth the ride and 38BD. Boat was run by Scubamasters.
