Discover exceptional marine biodiversity and rich and beautiful coral reefs. A true sanctuary.
Located on the north coast of Shadwan Island, about 40 km from Hurghada, this spot is flush with the surface. The north side of the reef is home to 4 wrecks including Carnatic, Giannis D and Chrisoula K. If their common point is a collision with the reef, their story is different and will be subject to detailed briefing on board.
After Ras Mohamed, we find Shaab Mahmoud. The southern part of the reef is home to the Dunraven wreck. It rests on a sandy bottom and beautiful hard and soft corals have settled there. The reef itself is nice, rich in corals and different species of fish can be found.
Is characterized by magnificent falls. Due to its location on the Sinai Peninsula, at the junction of the Gulf of Suez and the Gulf of Aqaba, the salinity of the water is variable and offers a spectacular range of reefs, various types of fish, various corals and lush walls. Shark Reef and Yolanda Reef are the most popular spots in Ras Mohammed. They offer the opportunity to observe every species of fish in the Red Sea.
The strait is home to 4 beautiful coral reefs that fron the surface: Thomas Reef, Gordon Reef,
Jackson Reef and Woodhouse Reef, named after the British geographers who
have mapped.
Located in the middle of the strait, the narrowness of these reefs often brings a current to see many pelagic fish. The diversity and beauty of corals is spectacular. It’s a true underwater sanctuary.
Located in the Gubal Strait, between the Shaab Ali reef and the Sinai coast, it is probably the most famous wreck of the Red Sea. The British freighter was attacked by a German bomber in 1941. The wreck is laid on the bottom at 32m depth. Tanks, trucks, motorcycles, weapons and railway engines are particularly well preserved and interesting to observe.
On the side of the island of Gubal, are the wreck Ulysses or the very famous Rosalie Moller.
Ulysses is one of the oldest shipwrecks in the Red Sea. Corals are as well as on the reef beside which it lies. Rosalie Moller was same fate as SS Thistlegorm. The wreck is placed on a sandy bottom about 50m depth. It is remarkably preserved and offers a rich fauna and unusual.
The diving spots are varied: Shaab El Erg, north of Hurghada, we often find bottlenose dolphins. Shaab Ruhr Umm Gamar, south of Shaab El Erg. The reef consists of a wall covered with corals, a coral garden with the remains of a small wreck and a drop-off. Several types of dives are possible there. Or, the wreck of El Minya, located in front of the main port of Hurghada.
