El Fanar Beach is at Ras Um Sid near Hadaba, next to the well-known Ras Um Sid lighthouse. It's known for a wooden jetty that leads straight to the reef, so you can snorkel without a boat.
It's good for a relaxed day and for watching the sunset over the sea, with beach restaurants and cafés. We drop you off and either wait or come back at the time you choose.

- Snorkeling straight from the beach
