Always protected — suitable for any level of diving and training
The gentler western twin of the Fanous reef: a flat sandy bottom along a shallow wall, a narrow channel opening into a 9-metre lagoon, and a coral garden sloping down to 14 metres with a few pinnacles further west. Dive it as an easy drift along the wall or potter out through the channel from the mooring — either way it is one of the most forgiving sites in Hurghada.
