A tongue of reef stretching east with the moorings on its southern side. North of the main reef lies the real attraction: a maze of coral ridges and towers forming one of the most theatrical underwater landscapes near Hurghada, beside an exquisite coral garden cascading down to bright white sand at 14 metres. The nutrient-rich north face sparkles with life, layered like a carefully tended garden of hard corals.
