About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

The popular reefs of the Strait of Tiran: Jackson, Woodhouse, Thomas and Gordon Reef, promise diversified dives. At Jackson Reef, life is buzzing with turtles, anthias and numerous fusiliers. The wonderful soft corals enchant every diver. With a bit of luck, hammerhead sharks can be seen at the outer part of the reef or at Gordon Reef. Woodhouse and Gordon offer steep walls, the famous Thomas Canyon and beautiful gorgonians.

Ras Mohamed (Shark & Yolanda):
The dive site is located on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula and promises a variety of highlights for divers. The bottomless wall at Shark Reef is beautifully overgrown with soft corals. Especially in the summer months, the reef hosts plenty of fish. Schools of snappers, jacks and batfish are gathering in the deep blue at the drop-off. With a little luck, grey reef sharks and barracudas can be seen. Yolanda Reef is named after the sunken cargo ship. The ship itself has slipped to great depths, its cargo is still scattered on the reef between colorful corals: toilets, bathtubs and even the leftovers of a car are among the attractions.

About the diving:

SS. Thistlegorm:
One of the most famous and popular wrecks in the Red Sea is certainly the SS Thistlegorm. Rediscovered in 1956 by Jacques Cousteau, the wreck offers one-of-a-kind dives with a variety of marine life and spectacular holds with relics of the Second World War. While diving you can discover trucks and motorcycles. Worth seeing is the stern with machine guns and the locomotive on the ocean floor next to the wreck. Watch out for ammunition lying around!

Abu Nuhas:
Abu Nuhas ship graveyard on the Gubal Strait houses four wrecks at moderate depths. The Giannis D, Carnatic, Chrisoula K and Kimon M are overgrown with colorful corals and form artificial reefs for numerous fish, shrimp, octopus and moray eels. Interesting dives are guaranteed because each of the wrecks is different.

Brothers:
Sharks, wrecks and drop-offs – there is almost nothing that does not exist here. The well-known thresher shark cleaning station on Little Brother, grey reef sharks, hammerheads and Longimanus guarantee exciting dives. The spectacular drop-offs are covered with soft corals, as well as the two wrecks Numidia and Aida at Big Brother.

Rediscovered in 1956 by Jacques Cousteau, the wreck offers one-of-a-kind dives with a variety of marine life and spectacular holds with relics of the Second World War. While diving you can discover trucks and motorcycles. Worth seeing is the stern with machine guns and the locomotive on the ocean floor next to the wreck. Watch out for ammunition lying around!

Abu Nuhas:
Abu Nuhas ship graveyard on the Gubal Strait houses four wrecks at moderate depths. The Giannis D, Carnatic, Chrisoula K and Kimon M are overgrown with colorful corals and form artificial reefs for numerous fish, shrimp, octopus and moray eels. Interesting dives are guaranteed because each of the wrecks is different.

Strait of Tiran:
The popular reefs of the Strait of Tiran: Jackson, Woodhouse, Thomas and Gordon Reef, promise diversified dives. At Jackson Reef, life is buzzing with turtles, anthias and numerous fusiliers. The wonderful soft corals enchant every diver. With a bit of luck, hammerhead sharks can be seen at the outer part of the reef or at Gordon Reef. Woodhouse and Gordon offer steep walls, the famous Thomas Canyon and beautiful gorgonians.

Ras Mohamed (Shark & Yolanda):
The dive site is located on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula and promises a variety of highlights for divers. The bottomless wall at Shark Reef is beautifully overgrown with soft corals. Especially in the summer months, the reef hosts plenty of fish. Schools of snappers, jacks and batfish are gathering in the deep blue at the drop-off. With a little luck, grey reef sharks and barracudas can be seen. Yolanda Reef is named after the sunken cargo ship. The ship itself has slipped to great depths, its cargo is still scattered on the reef between colorful corals: toilets, bathtubs and even the leftovers of a car are among the attractions.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

Brothers:

Sharks, wrecks and drop-offs – there is almost nothing that does not exist here. The well-known thresher shark cleaning station on Little Brother, grey reef sharks, hammerheads and Longimanus guarantee exciting dives. The spectacular drop-offs are covered with soft corals, as well as the two wrecks Numidia and Aida at Big Brother.

 

Daedalus:

The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

 

Elphinstone:

The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

About the diving:

SS. Thistlegorm:
One of the most famous and popular wrecks in the Red Sea is certainly the SS Thistlegorm. Rediscovered in 1956 by Jacques Cousteau, the wreck offers one-of-a-kind dives with a variety of marine life and spectacular holds with relics of the Second World War. While diving you can discover trucks and motorcycles. Worth seeing is the stern with machine guns and the locomotive on the ocean floor next to the wreck. Watch out for ammunition lying around!

Abu Nuhas:
Abu Nuhas ship graveyard on the Gubal Strait houses four wrecks at moderate depths. The Giannis D, Carnatic, Chrisoula K and Kimon M are overgrown with colorful corals and form artificial reefs for numerous fish, shrimp, octopus and moray eels. Interesting dives are guaranteed because each of the wrecks is different.

Strait of Tiran:
The popular reefs of the Strait of Tiran: Jackson, Woodhouse, Thomas and Gordon Reef, promise diversified dives. At Jackson Reef, life is buzzing with turtles, anthias and numerous fusiliers. The wonderful soft corals enchant every diver. With a bit of luck, hammerhead sharks can be seen at the outer part of the reef or at Gordon Reef. Woodhouse and Gordon offer steep walls, the famous Thomas Canyon and beautiful gorgonians.

Ras Mohamed (Shark & Yolanda):
The dive site is located on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula and promises a variety of highlights for divers. The bottomless wall at Shark Reef is beautifully overgrown with soft corals. Especially in the summer months, the reef hosts plenty of fish. Schools of snappers, jacks and batfish are gathering in the deep blue at the drop-off. With a little luck, grey reef sharks and barracudas can be seen. Yolanda Reef is named after the sunken cargo ship. The ship itself has slipped to great depths, its cargo is still scattered on the reef between colorful corals: toilets, bathtubs and even the leftovers of a car are among the attractions.

The spectacular drop-offs are covered with soft corals, as well as the two wrecks Numidia and Aida at Big Brother.

About the diving:

Brothers:

Sharks, wrecks and drop-offs – there is almost nothing that does not exist here. The well-known thresher shark cleaning station on Little Brother, grey reef sharks, hammerheads and Longimanus guarantee exciting dives. The spectacular drop-offs are covered with soft corals, as well as the two wrecks Numidia and Aida at Big Brother.

 

Daedalus:

The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

 

Elphinstone:

The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

About the diving:

SS. Thistlegorm:
One of the most famous and popular wrecks in the Red Sea is certainly the SS Thistlegorm. Rediscovered in 1956 by Jacques Cousteau, the wreck offers one-of-a-kind dives with a variety of marine life and spectacular holds with relics of the Second World War. While diving you can discover trucks and motorcycles. Worth seeing is the stern with machine guns and the locomotive on the ocean floor next to the wreck. Watch out for ammunition lying around!

Abu Nuhas:
Abu Nuhas ship graveyard on the Gubal Strait houses four wrecks at moderate depths. The Giannis D, Carnatic, Chrisoula K and Kimon M are overgrown with colorful corals and form artificial reefs for numerous fish, shrimp, octopus and moray eels. Interesting dives are guaranteed because each of the wrecks is different.

Brothers:
Sharks, wrecks and drop-offs – there is almost nothing that does not exist here. The well-known thresher shark cleaning station on Little Brother, grey reef sharks, hammerheads and Longimanus guarantee exciting dives. The spectacular drop-offs are covered with soft corals, as well as the two wrecks Numidia and Aida at Big Brother.

About the diving:

SS. Thistlegorm:
One of the most famous and popular wrecks in the Red Sea is certainly the SS Thistlegorm. Rediscovered in 1956 by Jacques Cousteau, the wreck offers one-of-a-kind dives with a variety of marine life and spectacular holds with relics of the Second World War. While diving you can discover trucks and motorcycles. Worth seeing is the stern with machine guns and the locomotive on the ocean floor next to the wreck. Watch out for ammunition lying around!

Abu Nuhas:
Abu Nuhas ship graveyard on the Gubal Strait houses four wrecks at moderate depths. The Giannis D, Carnatic, Chrisoula K and Kimon M are overgrown with colorful corals and form artificial reefs for numerous fish, shrimp, octopus and moray eels. Interesting dives are guaranteed because each of the wrecks is different.

Strait of Tiran:
The popular reefs of the Strait of Tiran: Jackson, Woodhouse, Thomas and Gordon Reef, promise diversified dives. At Jackson Reef, life is buzzing with turtles, anthias and numerous fusiliers. The wonderful soft corals enchant every diver. With a bit of luck, hammerhead sharks can be seen at the outer part of the reef or at Gordon Reef. Woodhouse and Gordon offer steep walls, the famous Thomas Canyon and beautiful gorgonians.

Ras Mohamed (Shark & Yolanda):
The dive site is located on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula and promises a variety of highlights for divers. The bottomless wall at Shark Reef is beautifully overgrown with soft corals. Especially in the summer months, the reef hosts plenty of fish. Schools of snappers, jacks and batfish are gathering in the deep blue at the drop-off. With a little luck, grey reef sharks and barracudas can be seen. Yolanda Reef is named after the sunken cargo ship. The ship itself has slipped to great depths, its cargo is still scattered on the reef between colorful corals: toilets, bathtubs and even the leftovers of a car are among the attractions.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

 

Elphinstone:

The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

About the diving:

SS. Thistlegorm:
One of the most famous and popular wrecks in the Red Sea is certainly the SS Thistlegorm. Rediscovered in 1956 by Jacques Cousteau, the wreck offers one-of-a-kind dives with a variety of marine life and spectacular holds with relics of the Second World War. While diving you can discover trucks and motorcycles. Worth seeing is the stern with machine guns and the locomotive on the ocean floor next to the wreck. Watch out for ammunition lying around!

Abu Nuhas:
Abu Nuhas ship graveyard on the Gubal Strait houses four wrecks at moderate depths. The Giannis D, Carnatic, Chrisoula K and Kimon M are overgrown with colorful corals and form artificial reefs for numerous fish, shrimp, octopus and moray eels. Interesting dives are guaranteed because each of the wrecks is different.

Strait of Tiran:
The popular reefs of the Strait of Tiran: Jackson, Woodhouse, Thomas and Gordon Reef, promise diversified dives. At Jackson Reef, life is buzzing with turtles, anthias and numerous fusiliers. The wonderful soft corals enchant every diver. With a bit of luck, hammerhead sharks can be seen at the outer part of the reef or at Gordon Reef. Woodhouse and Gordon offer steep walls, the famous Thomas Canyon and beautiful gorgonians.

Ras Mohamed (Shark & Yolanda):
The dive site is located on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula and promises a variety of highlights for divers. The bottomless wall at Shark Reef is beautifully overgrown with soft corals. Especially in the summer months, the reef hosts plenty of fish. Schools of snappers, jacks and batfish are gathering in the deep blue at the drop-off. With a little luck, grey reef sharks and barracudas can be seen. Yolanda Reef is named after the sunken cargo ship. The ship itself has slipped to great depths, its cargo is still scattered on the reef between colorful corals: toilets, bathtubs and even the leftovers of a car are among the attractions.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

About the diving:

SS. Thistlegorm:
One of the most famous and popular wrecks in the Red Sea is certainly the SS Thistlegorm. Rediscovered in 1956 by Jacques Cousteau, the wreck offers one-of-a-kind dives with a variety of marine life and spectacular holds with relics of the Second World War. While diving you can discover trucks and motorcycles. Worth seeing is the stern with machine guns and the locomotive on the ocean floor next to the wreck. Watch out for ammunition lying around!

Abu Nuhas:
Abu Nuhas ship graveyard on the Gubal Strait houses four wrecks at moderate depths. The Giannis D, Carnatic, Chrisoula K and Kimon M are overgrown with colorful corals and form artificial reefs for numerous fish, shrimp, octopus and moray eels. Interesting dives are guaranteed because each of the wrecks is different.

Brothers:
Sharks, wrecks and drop-offs – there is almost nothing that does not exist here. The well-known thresher shark cleaning station on Little Brother, grey reef sharks, hammerheads and Longimanus guarantee exciting dives. The spectacular drop-offs are covered with soft corals, as well as the two wrecks Numidia and Aida at Big Brother.

About the diving:

SS. Thistlegorm:
One of the most famous and popular wrecks in the Red Sea is certainly the SS Thistlegorm. Rediscovered in 1956 by Jacques Cousteau, the wreck offers one-of-a-kind dives with a variety of marine life and spectacular holds with relics of the Second World War. While diving you can discover trucks and motorcycles. Worth seeing is the stern with machine guns and the locomotive on the ocean floor next to the wreck. Watch out for ammunition lying around!

Abu Nuhas:
Abu Nuhas ship graveyard on the Gubal Strait houses four wrecks at moderate depths. The Giannis D, Carnatic, Chrisoula K and Kimon M are overgrown with colorful corals and form artificial reefs for numerous fish, shrimp, octopus and moray eels. Interesting dives are guaranteed because each of the wrecks is different.

Strait of Tiran:
The popular reefs of the Strait of Tiran: Jackson, Woodhouse, Thomas and Gordon Reef, promise diversified dives. At Jackson Reef, life is buzzing with turtles, anthias and numerous fusiliers. The wonderful soft corals enchant every diver. With a bit of luck, hammerhead sharks can be seen at the outer part of the reef or at Gordon Reef. Woodhouse and Gordon offer steep walls, the famous Thomas Canyon and beautiful gorgonians.

Ras Mohamed (Shark & Yolanda):
The dive site is located on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula and promises a variety of highlights for divers. The bottomless wall at Shark Reef is beautifully overgrown with soft corals. Especially in the summer months, the reef hosts plenty of fish. Schools of snappers, jacks and batfish are gathering in the deep blue at the drop-off. With a little luck, grey reef sharks and barracudas can be seen. Yolanda Reef is named after the sunken cargo ship. The ship itself has slipped to great depths, its cargo is still scattered on the reef between colorful corals: toilets, bathtubs and even the leftovers of a car are among the attractions.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

About the diving:

SS. Thistlegorm:
One of the most famous and popular wrecks in the Red Sea is certainly the SS Thistlegorm. Rediscovered in 1956 by Jacques Cousteau, the wreck offers one-of-a-kind dives with a variety of marine life and spectacular holds with relics of the Second World War. While diving you can discover trucks and motorcycles. Worth seeing is the stern with machine guns and the locomotive on the ocean floor next to the wreck. Watch out for ammunition lying around!

Abu Nuhas:
Abu Nuhas ship graveyard on the Gubal Strait houses four wrecks at moderate depths. The Giannis D, Carnatic, Chrisoula K and Kimon M are overgrown with colorful corals and form artificial reefs for numerous fish, shrimp, octopus and moray eels. Interesting dives are guaranteed because each of the wrecks is different.

Strait of Tiran:
The popular reefs of the Strait of Tiran: Jackson, Woodhouse, Thomas and Gordon Reef, promise diversified dives. At Jackson Reef, life is buzzing with turtles, anthias and numerous fusiliers. The wonderful soft corals enchant every diver. With a bit of luck, hammerhead sharks can be seen at the outer part of the reef or at Gordon Reef. Woodhouse and Gordon offer steep walls, the famous Thomas Canyon and beautiful gorgonians.

Ras Mohamed (Shark & Yolanda):
The dive site is located on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula and promises a variety of highlights for divers. The bottomless wall at Shark Reef is beautifully overgrown with soft corals. Especially in the summer months, the reef hosts plenty of fish. Schools of snappers, jacks and batfish are gathering in the deep blue at the drop-off. With a little luck, grey reef sharks and barracudas can be seen. Yolanda Reef is named after the sunken cargo ship. The ship itself has slipped to great depths, its cargo is still scattered on the reef between colorful corals: toilets, bathtubs and even the leftovers of a car are among the attractions.

About the diving:

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

Zabargad:
Zabargad Island is around 3.5 km long with many interesting dive sites. A nameless wreck with a length of 70 m lies between 1 and 24 meters on the sandy bottom, at low tide the mast towers over the water. It is possible to explore the bridge and the engine room. A hard coral garden on the west side and a colorful plateau in the south offer great variety.

Rocky Island:
Rocky Island is a tiny island near Zabargad. The legendary dive site is surrounded by a large fringing reef that seems to drop steeply to infinity. The reef is swarming with life and covered with lots of gorgonians, soft and fan corals. With a bit of luck, you can also spot big fish like grey reef sharks, white tip sharks and dolphins

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

About the diving:

SS. Thistlegorm:
One of the most famous and popular wrecks in the Red Sea is certainly the SS Thistlegorm. Rediscovered in 1956 by Jacques Cousteau, the wreck offers one-of-a-kind dives with a variety of marine life and spectacular holds with relics of the Second World War. While diving you can discover trucks and motorcycles. Worth seeing is the stern with machine guns and the locomotive on the ocean floor next to the wreck. Watch out for ammunition lying around!

Abu Nuhas:
Abu Nuhas ship graveyard on the Gubal Strait houses four wrecks at moderate depths. The Giannis D, Carnatic, Chrisoula K and Kimon M are overgrown with colorful corals and form artificial reefs for numerous fish, shrimp, octopus and moray eels. Interesting dives are guaranteed because each of the wrecks is different.

Strait of Tiran:
The popular reefs of the Strait of Tiran: Jackson, Woodhouse, Thomas and Gordon Reef, promise diversified dives. At Jackson Reef, life is buzzing with turtles, anthias and numerous fusiliers. The wonderful soft corals enchant every diver. With a bit of luck, hammerhead sharks can be seen at the outer part of the reef or at Gordon Reef. Woodhouse and Gordon offer steep walls, the famous Thomas Canyon and beautiful gorgonians.

Ras Mohamed (Shark & Yolanda):
The dive site is located on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula and promises a variety of highlights for divers. The bottomless wall at Shark Reef is beautifully overgrown with soft corals. Especially in the summer months, the reef hosts plenty of fish. Schools of snappers, jacks and batfish are gathering in the deep blue at the drop-off. With a little luck, grey reef sharks and barracudas can be seen. Yolanda Reef is named after the sunken cargo ship. The ship itself has slipped to great depths, its cargo is still scattered on the reef between colorful corals: toilets, bathtubs and even the leftovers of a car are among the attractions.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

About the diving:

SS. Thistlegorm:
One of the most famous and popular wrecks in the Red Sea is certainly the SS Thistlegorm. Rediscovered in 1956 by Jacques Cousteau, the wreck offers one-of-a-kind dives with a variety of marine life and spectacular holds with relics of the Second World War. While diving you can discover trucks and motorcycles. Worth seeing is the stern with machine guns and the locomotive on the ocean floor next to the wreck. Watch out for ammunition lying around!

Abu Nuhas:
Abu Nuhas ship graveyard on the Gubal Strait houses four wrecks at moderate depths. The Giannis D, Carnatic, Chrisoula K and Kimon M are overgrown with colorful corals and form artificial reefs for numerous fish, shrimp, octopus and moray eels. Interesting dives are guaranteed because each of the wrecks is different.

Brothers:
Sharks, wrecks and drop-offs – there is almost nothing that does not exist here. The well-known thresher shark cleaning station on Little Brother, grey reef sharks, hammerheads and Longimanus guarantee exciting dives. The spectacular drop-offs are covered with soft corals, as well as the two wrecks Numidia and Aida at Big Brother.

About the diving:

SS. Thistlegorm:
One of the most famous and popular wrecks in the Red Sea is certainly the SS Thistlegorm. Rediscovered in 1956 by Jacques Cousteau, the wreck offers one-of-a-kind dives with a variety of marine life and spectacular holds with relics of the Second World War. While diving you can discover trucks and motorcycles. Worth seeing is the stern with machine guns and the locomotive on the ocean floor next to the wreck. Watch out for ammunition lying around!

Abu Nuhas:
Abu Nuhas ship graveyard on the Gubal Strait houses four wrecks at moderate depths. The Giannis D, Carnatic, Chrisoula K and Kimon M are overgrown with colorful corals and form artificial reefs for numerous fish, shrimp, octopus and moray eels. Interesting dives are guaranteed because each of the wrecks is different.

Strait of Tiran:
The popular reefs of the Strait of Tiran: Jackson, Woodhouse, Thomas and Gordon Reef, promise diversified dives. At Jackson Reef, life is buzzing with turtles, anthias and numerous fusiliers. The wonderful soft corals enchant every diver. With a bit of luck, hammerhead sharks can be seen at the outer part of the reef or at Gordon Reef. Woodhouse and Gordon offer steep walls, the famous Thomas Canyon and beautiful gorgonians.

Ras Mohamed (Shark & Yolanda):
The dive site is located on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula and promises a variety of highlights for divers. The bottomless wall at Shark Reef is beautifully overgrown with soft corals. Especially in the summer months, the reef hosts plenty of fish. Schools of snappers, jacks and batfish are gathering in the deep blue at the drop-off. With a little luck, grey reef sharks and barracudas can be seen. Yolanda Reef is named after the sunken cargo ship. The ship itself has slipped to great depths, its cargo is still scattered on the reef between colorful corals: toilets, bathtubs and even the leftovers of a car are among the attractions.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

About the diving:

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

Zabargad:
Zabargad Island is around 3.5 km long with many interesting dive sites. A nameless wreck with a length of 70 m lies between 1 and 24 meters on the sandy bottom, at low tide the mast towers over the water. It is possible to explore the bridge and the engine room. A hard coral garden on the west side and a colorful plateau in the south offer great variety.

Rocky Island:
Rocky Island is a tiny island near Zabargad. The legendary dive site is surrounded by a large fringing reef that seems to drop steeply to infinity. The reef is swarming with life and covered with lots of gorgonians, soft and fan corals. With a bit of luck, you can also spot big fish like grey reef sharks, white tip sharks and dolphins

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

Zabargad:
Zabargad Island is around 3.5 km long with many interesting dive sites. A nameless wreck with a length of 70 m lies between 1 and 24 meters on the sandy bottom, at low tide the mast towers over the water. It is possible to explore the bridge and the engine room. A hard coral garden on the west side and a colorful plateau in the south offer great variety.

Rocky Island:
Rocky Island is a tiny island near Zabargad. The legendary dive site is surrounded by a large fringing reef that seems to drop steeply to infinity. The reef is swarming with life and covered with lots of gorgonians, soft and fan corals. With a bit of luck, you can also spot big fish like grey reef sharks, white tip sharks and dolphins

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

About the diving:

While diving you can discover trucks and motorcycles. Worth seeing is the stern with machine guns and the locomotive on the ocean floor next to the wreck. Watch out for ammunition lying around!

Abu Nuhas:
Abu Nuhas ship graveyard on the Gubal Strait houses four wrecks at moderate depths. The Giannis D, Carnatic, Chrisoula K and Kimon M are overgrown with colorful corals and form artificial reefs for numerous fish, shrimp, octopus and moray eels. Interesting dives are guaranteed because each of the wrecks is different.

Sharks, wrecks and drop-offs – there is almost nothing that does not exist here. The well-known thresher shark cleaning station on Little Brother, grey reef sharks, hammerheads and Longimanus guarantee exciting dives.

The wonderful soft corals enchant every diver. With a bit of luck, hammerhead sharks can be seen at the outer part of reef or at Gordon Reef. Woodhouse and Gordon offer steep walls, the famous Thomas Canyon and beautiful gorgonians.

Ras Mohamed (Shark & Yolanda):
The dive site is located on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula and promises a variety of highlights for divers. The bottomless wall at Shark Reef is beautifully overgrown with soft corals. Especially in the summer months the reef hosts plenty of fish. Schools of snappers, jacks and batfish are gathering in the deep blue at the drop off. With a little luck grey reef sharks and barracudas can be seen. Yolanda Reef is named after the sunken cargo ship. The ship itself has slipped to great depths, its cargo is still scattered on the reef between colourful corals: toilets, bathtubs and even the leftovers of a car are among the attractions.

Between 5 and 27 meters’ depth lies the beautifully overgrown wreck of the Ulysses. At Bluff Point, there is a remarkable wall with small overhangs and fantastic corals.

Abu Nuhas:
Abu Nuhas ship graveyard on the Gubal Strait houses four wrecks at moderate depths. The Giannis D, Carnatic, Chrisoula K and Kimon M are overgrown with colorful corals and form artificial reefs for numerous fish, shrimp, octopus and moray eels. Interesting dives are guaranteed because each of the wrecks is different.

Rosalie Moller:
If the weather and current conditions permit, the Rosalie Moller can also be dived. The legendary wreck lies in the Strait of Gubal and is considered one of the most beautiful wrecks in the Red Sea. Thousands of glassfish, jackfish, lionfish and snappers are found here. With a length of over 100 meters, the wreck offers plenty of space for discoveries. Due to the depth – between 20 and 50 meters, the wreck is less suitable for beginners and novice divers.

Strait of Tiran:
The popular reefs of the Strait of Tiran: Jackson, Woodhouse, Thomas and Gordon Reef, promise diversified dives. At Jackson Riff life is buzzing with turtles, anthias and numerous fusiliers. The wonderful soft corals enchant every diver. With a bit of luck, hammerhead sharks can be seen at the outer part of reef or at Gordon Reef. Woodhouse and Gordon offer steep walls, the famous Thomas Canyon and beautiful gorgonians.

Ras Mohamed (Shark & Yolanda):
The dive site is located on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula and promises a variety of highlights for divers. The bottomless wall at Shark Reef is beautifully overgrown with soft corals. Especially in the summer months the reef hosts plenty of fish. Schools of snappers, jacks and batfish are gathering in the deep blue at the drop off. With a little luck grey reef sharks and barracudas can be seen. Yolanda Reef is named after the sunken cargo ship. The ship itself has slipped to great depths, its cargo is still scattered on the reef between colourful corals: toilets, bathtubs and even the leftovers of a car are among the attractions.

About the diving:

SS. Thistlegorm:
One of the most famous and popular wrecks in the Red Sea is certainly the SS Thistlegorm. Rediscovered in 1956 by Jacques Cousteau, the wreck offers one-of-a-kind dives with a variety of marine life and spectacular holds with relics of the Second World War. While diving you can discover trucks and motorcycles. Worth seeing is the stern with its machine guns and the locomotive on the ocean floor next to the wreck. Watch out for ammunition lying around!

Little Gubal:
Between 5 and 27 meters’ depth lies the beautifully overgrown wreck of the Ulysses. At Bluff Point, there is a remarkable wall with small overhangs and fantastic corals.

Abu Nuhas:
Abu Nuhas ship graveyard on the Gubal Strait houses four wrecks at moderate depths. The Giannis D, Carnatic, Chrisoula K and Kimon M are overgrown with colorful corals and form artificial reefs for numerous fish, shrimp, octopus and moray eels. Interesting dives are guaranteed because each of the wrecks is different.

Rosalie Moller:
If the weather and current conditions permit, the Rosalie Moller can also be dived. The legendary wreck lies in the Strait of Gubal and is considered one of the most beautiful wrecks in the Red Sea. Thousands of glassfish, jackfish, lionfish and snappers are found here. With a length of over 100 meters, the wreck offers plenty of space for discoveries. Due to the depth – between 20 and 50 meters, the wreck is less suitable for beginners and novice divers.

About the diving:

SS. Thistlegorm:
One of the most famous and popular wrecks in the Red Sea is certainly the SS Thistlegorm. Rediscovered in 1956 by Jacques Cousteau, the wreck offers one-of-a-kind dives with a variety of marine life and spectacular holds with relics of the Second World War. While diving you can discover trucks and motorcycles. Worth seeing is the stern with its machine guns and the locomotive on the ocean floor next to the wreck. Watch out for ammunition lying around!

Little Gubal:
Between 5 and 27 meters’ depth lies the beautifully overgrown wreck of the Ulysses. At Bluff Point, there is a remarkable wall with small overhangs and fantastic corals.

Abu Nuhas:
Abu Nuhas ship graveyard on the Gubal Strait houses four wrecks at moderate depths. The Giannis D, Carnatic, Chrisoula K and Kimon M are overgrown with colorful corals and form artificial reefs for numerous fish, shrimp, octopus and moray eels. Interesting dives are guaranteed because each of the wrecks is different.

Rosalie Moller:
If the weather and current conditions permit, the Rosalie Moller can also be dived. The legendary wreck lies in the Strait of Gubal and is considered one of the most beautiful wrecks in the Red Sea.

The popular reefs of the Strait of Tiran: Jackson, Woodhouse, Thomas and Gordon Reef, promise diversified dives. At Jackson Riff life is buzzing with turtles, anthias and numerous fusiliers. The wonderful soft corals enchant every diver. With a bit of luck, hammerhead sharks can be seen at the outer part of reef or at Gordon Reef. Woodhouse and Gordon offer steep walls, the famous Thomas Canyon and beautiful gorgonians.

Ras Mohamed (Shark & Yolanda):
The dive site is located on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula and promises a variety of highlights for divers. The bottomless wall at Shark Reef is beautifully overgrown with soft corals. Especially in the summer months the reef hosts plenty of fish. Schools of snappers, jacks and batfish are gathering in the deep blue at the drop off. With a little luck grey reef sharks and barracudas can be seen. Yolanda Reef is named after the sunken cargo ship. The ship itself has slipped to great depths, its cargo is still scattered on the reef between colourful corals: toilets, bathtubs and even the leftovers of a car are among the attractions.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

Rocky Island:
Rocky Island is a tiny island near Zabargad. The legendary dive site is surrounded by a large fringing reef that seems to drop steeply to infinity. The reef is swarming with life and covered with lots of gorgonians, soft and fan corals. With a bit of luck, you can also spot big fish like grey reef sharks, white tip sharks and dolphins

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

Brothers:

Sharks, wrecks and drop-offs – there is almost nothing that does not exist here.

The spectacular drop-offs are covered with soft corals, as well as the two wrecks Numidia and Aida at Big Brother.

 

Daedalus:

The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

 

Elphinstone:

The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

About the diving:

Brothers:

Sharks, wrecks and drop-offs – there is almost nothing that does not exist here. The well-known thresher shark cleaning station on Little Brother, grey reef sharks, hammerheads and Longimanus guarantee exciting dives. The spectacular drop-offs are covered with soft corals, as well as the two wrecks Numidia and Aida at Big Brother.

 

Daedalus:

The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

 

Elphinstone:

The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

About the diving:

SS. Thistlegorm:
One of the most famous and popular wrecks in the Red Sea is certainly the SS Thistlegorm. Rediscovered in 1956 by Jacques Cousteau, the wreck offers one-of-a-kind dives with a variety of marine life and spectacular holds with relics of the Second World War. While diving you can discover trucks and motorcycles. Worth seeing is the stern with machine guns and the locomotive on the ocean floor next to the wreck. Watch out for ammunition lying around!

Abu Nuhas:
Abu Nuhas ship graveyard on the Gubal Strait houses four wrecks at moderate depths. The Giannis D, Carnatic, Chrisoula K and Kimon M are overgrown with colourful corals and form artificial reefs for numerous fish, shrimp, octopus and moray eels. Interesting dives are guaranteed, because each of the wrecks is different.

Strait of Tiran:
The popular reefs of the Strait of Tiran: Jackson, Woodhouse, Thomas and Gordon Reef, promise diversified dives. At Jackson Riff life is buzzing with turtles, anthias and numerous fusiliers. The wonderful soft corals enchant every diver. With a bit of luck, hammerhead sharks can be seen at the outer part of reef or at Gordon Reef. Woodhouse and Gordon offer steep walls, the famous Thomas Canyon and beautiful gorgonians.

Ras Mohamed (Shark & Yolanda):
The dive site is located on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula and promises a variety of highlights for divers. The bottomless wall at Shark Reef is beautifully overgrown with soft corals. Especially in the summer months the reef hosts plenty of fish. Schools of snappers, jacks and batfish are gathering in the deep blue at the drop off. With a little luck grey reef sharks and barracudas can be seen. Yolanda Reef is named after the sunken cargo ship. The ship itself has slipped to great depths, its cargo is still scattered on the reef between colourful corals: toilets, bathtubs and even the leftovers of a car are among the attractions.

About the diving:

SS. Thistlegorm:
One of the most famous and popular wrecks in the Red Sea is certainly the SS Thistlegorm. Rediscovered in 1956 by Jacques Cousteau, the wreck offers one-of-a-kind dives with a variety of marine life and spectacular holds with relics of the Second World War. While diving you can discover trucks and motorcycles. Worth seeing is the stern with machine guns and the locomotive on the ocean floor next to the wreck. Watch out for ammunition lying around!

Abu Nuhas:
Abu Nuhas ship graveyard on the Gubal Strait houses four wrecks at moderate depths. The Giannis D, Carnatic, Chrisoula K and Kimon M are overgrown with colourful corals and form artificial reefs for numerous fish, shrimp, octopus and moray eels. Interesting dives are guaranteed, because each of the wrecks is different.

Strait of Tiran:
The popular reefs of the Strait of Tiran: Jackson, Woodhouse, Thomas and Gordon Reef, promise diversified dives. At Jackson Riff life is buzzing with turtles, anthias and numerous fusiliers. The wonderful soft corals enchant every diver. With a bit of luck, hammerhead sharks can be seen at the outer part of reef or at Gordon Reef. Woodhouse and Gordon offer steep walls, the famous Thomas Canyon and beautiful gorgonians.

Ras Mohamed (Shark & Yolanda):
The dive site is located on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula and promises a variety of highlights for divers. The bottomless wall at Shark Reef is beautifully overgrown with soft corals. Especially in the summer months the reef hosts plenty of fish. Schools of snappers, jacks and batfish are gathering in the deep blue at the drop off. With a little luck grey reef sharks and barracudas can be seen. Yolanda Reef is named after the sunken cargo ship. The ship itself has slipped to great depths, its cargo is still scattered on the reef between colourful corals: toilets, bathtubs and even the leftovers of a car are among the attractions.

Thousands of glassfish, jackfish, lionfish and snappers are found here. With a length of over 100 meters, the wreck offers plenty of space for discoveries. Due to the depth – between 20 and 50 meters, the wreck is less suitable for beginners and novice divers.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

Strait of Tiran:
The popular reefs of the Strait of Tiran: Jackson, Woodhouse, Thomas and Gordon Reef, promise diversified dives. At Jackson Riff life is buzzing with turtles, anthias and numerous fusiliers. The wonderful soft corals enchant every diver. With a bit of luck, hammerhead sharks can be seen at the outer part of reef or at Gordon Reef. Woodhouse and Gordon offer steep walls, the famous Thomas Canyon and beautiful gorgonians.

Ras Mohamed (Shark & Yolanda):
The dive site is located on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula and promises a variety of highlights for divers. The bottomless wall at Shark Reef is beautifully overgrown with soft corals. Especially in the summer months the reef hosts plenty of fish. Schools of snappers, jacks and batfish are gathering in the deep blue at the drop off. With a little luck grey reef sharks and barracudas can be seen. Yolanda Reef is named after the sunken cargo ship. The ship itself has slipped to great depths, its cargo is still scattered on the reef between colourful corals: toilets, bathtubs and even the leftovers of a car are among the attractions.

About the diving:

SS. Thistlegorm:
One of the most famous and popular wrecks in the Red Sea is certainly the SS Thistlegorm. Rediscovered in 1956 by Jacques Cousteau, the wreck offers one-of-a-kind dives with a variety of marine life and spectacular holds with relics of the Second World War. While diving you can discover trucks and motorcycles. Worth seeing is the stern with its machine guns and the locomotive on the ocean floor next to the wreck. Watch out for ammunition lying around!

Little Gubal:
Between 5 and 27 meters’ depth lies the beautifully overgrown wreck of the Ulysses. At Bluff Point, there is a remarkable wall with small overhangs and fantastic corals.

Abu Nuhas:
Abu Nuhas ship graveyard on the Gubal Strait houses four wrecks at moderate depths. The Giannis D, Carnatic, Chrisoula K and Kimon M are overgrown with colorful corals and form artificial reefs for numerous fish, shrimp, octopus and moray eels. Interesting dives are guaranteed because each of the wrecks is different.

Rosalie Moller:
If the weather and current conditions permit, the Rosalie Moller can also be dived. The legendary wreck lies in the Strait of Gubal and is considered one of the most beautiful wrecks in the Red Sea. Thousands of glassfish, jackfish, lionfish and snappers are found here. With a length of over 100 meters, the wreck offers plenty of space for discoveries. Due to the depth – between 20 and 50 meters, the wreck is less suitable for beginners and novice divers.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

About the diving:

Shaab Claudio:
Diving is very relaxed here because of the shallow depth and little current. A small cave system that is very easy to dive attracts great light effects and is ideal for photographers. A beautiful hard coral garden, morays and huge napoleons make the dive site worth seeing.
Sha’ab Sataya is also known as “Dolphin House” and is located in the south of the Fury Shoals. The horseshoe-shaped reef includes a large lagoon where dolphins can be encountered quite often. Especially by snorkeling, there is the opportunity to experience unforgettable moments with the playful marine mammals. The reef is also great for night dives.

Elphinstone:
The reef is known for its two plateaus on the north and south sides, with good chances of hammerhead encounters. A frequent visitor is the curious oceanic whitetip shark (Longimanus). Fantastic corals, napoleon wrasses and turtles make the trip to Elphinstone Reef the perfect ending of the tour.

Daedalus:
The large reef lies south of the Brothers and impresses with intact hard coral gardens and the popular anemone city. However, Daedalus has become famous for its legendary hammerhead schools, which guarantee exciting dives.

The spectacular drop-offs are covered with soft corals, as well as the two wrecks Numidia and Aida at Big Brother.
