Well protected, good for all levels — a popular night-diving spot
A long, gently sloping wall paired with a shallow lagoon, about an hour out from central Hurghada. The wall runs down to a drop-off around 20-25 metres, riddled with small cracks and caves that shelter an unusually wide range of marine life for a site this easy to dive. A stand-out coral block sits at 12 metres with a busy cleaning station — one of the more reliable photo opportunities in the area.
