A top-rated diving experience in the Red Sea, divers can explore pristine and untouched dive sites. Daedalus Reef is a highlight of the itinerary, with its steep walls and strong currents, it’s also home to large pelagic species like hammerheads and mantas. Rocky Island is known for its dramatic underwater landscape and diverse marine life, including schools of tuna and barracuda. Zabargad Island is a secluded location with vibrant coral reefs where divers can spot rare species. This itinerary is perfect for those seeking an off-the-beaten-path diving experience, filled with thrilling encounters with marine life.
Also known as Turtle Bay, this shallow, grassy-bottomed site is known across the Red Sea for giant turtles, coral gardens and some great underwater topography. And if you're very lucky, you might spot a dugong - so keep one eye into the blue
Marine life is beautiful and abundant at Rocky Island. The reef drops to great depth and provides spectacular walls that are covered in coral trees. There's quite a current in this area, but brings with it a mass of marine life. Sitting at 80 - 120m is the SS Maidan, a relatively undisturbed, nearly-complete wreck that was in use during World War I. The SS Maidan is one of the most rarely visited and most beautiful and historic wrecks to be found in the Red Sea (tech divers only).
This expansive dive site is only 12km from shore and is perfect for drifting along walls adorned with lots of coral species. You might see oceanic white tips, hammerheads or reef sharks, so keep an eye out into the blue.
Daedalus Reef (also known as Abu Kizan) is in top condition. Known for large schools of hammerheads, divers may also see oceanic white tips, manta rays, thresher and reef sharks in the blue. This isolated reef is packed with Red Sea species and home to a beautiful selection of corals.
Offering both wall diving and shallow reefs, Zabargad is the southernmost and largest island in the Red Sea. Spectacular coral gardens are found here with an abundance of marine life. Beautiful hard and soft corals are found in this area with coral gardens stretching into the distance. A haven for reef fish, this is a beautiful site suitable for all levels of diver.
This glorious collection of reefs has something for everyone. From caves to wall diving, shark sightings to spinner dolphins, this site is suitable for all levels of diver. Offering both shallow and deeper dives, it’s located in the far south, so is quiet with pristine, colourful coral.
