Description

An unspoilt scuba diving spot with abundance of fire corals, fans and the chance to gardens of pristine underwater habitat. Small animails, nudibranchs, crabs and ribbon eels are usually encountered in large numbers here.

A popular location for snorkelers, divers and beach fanatics for a day out, with many tours coming from Hurghada and Safaga. Although touristic there is of course a reason why it is so popular. It is by far the best and vivid reef reachable so close to shore. And the reef improves when you leave the designated area and go beyond it. It is one of those dive sites where the underwater world will amaze you as much as the upper water world will. Enjoy diving here, but don’t forget that is crowded and enjoy looking at all those crazy people as well.
