A dive site listed under the name “Isar Island” in Sudan’s extreme southern Red Sea; the name could not be independently confirmed.

Overview

This site could not be independently verified. No source found during research documents a Sudan dive site named “Isar Island,” despite multiple searches and alternate spellings. As with the nearby “Dibsel Island” entry in this dataset, this name does not match any site on the documented Deep South reef circuit (Barra Musa Kebir/Saghir, Keary, Logan, Protector, Preserver, Karam Masamirit, Dahrat Qab, Dahrat Abid, Shaab Loka, Shaab Tawil). The detailed description previously published here (silky shark encounters, cold upwellings, specific current patterns) could not be traced to any source and has been removed.
