The Japanese Gardens' coral reef, situated in the western tip of the Arabian Peninsula, is considered one of the most beautiful reefs on earth, contains many fish which are indigenous to it, and exhibits a unique construction of the subterranean landscape. However, it is not among the list of the 50 most visited diving areas.
All of the following may help resolve the seeming discrepancy above EXCEPT:
A. Most of the world's divers are from the Americas, over 7000 miles away from the Arabian Peninsula.
B. Due to severe underwater currents throughout most of the year, the Japanese Gardens can only be accessed during two months of the year.
C. Diving in the Japanese Gardens requires a high level of expertise.
D. While the vast majority of the diving areas on the 50 most visited diving areas' list are accessible from the beach, the Japanese gardens can only be accessed from a boat.
E. As in many of the diving areas on the 50 most visited diving areas' list, one must train for at least two weeks before one can dive in the Japanese Gardens.
