The ship graveyard at Abu Nuhas. History frozen on the Thistlegorm. Dolphins in the blue. Big game action at the Brothers. 18+ dives across the undisputed icons of the Red Sea.

  • Dolphins at Shaab El ErgOne of the best places in the Red Sea to encounter bottlenose dolphins in the wild. The horseshoe-shaped reef with its sheltered lagoon is a regular meeting point for resident pods, especially on early morning dives.
  • Abu Nuhas — The Ships' GraveyardFour wrecks on a single reef — the Carnatic (1869), Giannis D (1983), Chrisoula K (the Tile Wreck), and Kimon M (the Lentil Wreck). Each wreck has a different character, from swim-through iron skeletons to penetrable engine rooms filled with glassfish.
  • SS Thistlegorm — World War II IconOne of the world's most famous wreck dives. A British WWII cargo steamer sunk in 1941, resting at 30 metres with its wartime cargo still intact — trucks, motorcycles, rifles, Wellington boots.
  • Ras Mohamed National ParkThe most renowned marine reserve in the Red Sea, at the southern tip of Sinai. Vertical walls, coral gardens, and dramatic drop-offs.
  • Brother's IslandThe Brother Islands are legendary for their dramatic reef walls and two of the Red Sea’s most iconic wreck dives. Resting against Big Brother’s steep slopes are the historic SS Numidia, lying beautifully encrusted in corals from shallow to deep, and the deeper SS Aida, draped in soft corals and frequented by pelagic life.

Sha'ab El Erg (Dolphin House)

Sha'ab El Erg (Dolphin House)

8–30m

A horseshoe-shaped reef between Hurghada and El Gouna, home to a resident pod of spinner dolphins. Morning dives offer frequent encounters in the sheltered inner lagoon. The outer reef drops off to 30m with barracuda, tuna, and blue-spotted rays. Visibility regularly exceeds 40m. The ideal check dive — and potentially the best check dive in the Red Sea.

Abu Nuhas Wrecks

Abu Nuhas Wrecks

3–32m

Four wrecks on a single reef — the Red Sea's most notorious ship graveyard. The Carnatic (1869, 25–27m) with safe swim-throughs. The Giannis D (1983, 6–27m) with penetrable bridge and engine room. The MV Marcus 'Tile Wreck' (1981, 4–28m) with Italian floor tiles in the holds. The Kimon M 'Lentil Wreck' (1978, 15–32m), the deepest and quietest.

Gobal Island — The Barge

Gobal Island — The Barge

14m

Night diving at Gobal Island is a Red Sea highlight. The Barge is a nocturnal playground, famous for its massive resident moray eels, hunting lionfish, and vibrant Spanish dancers that emerge after dark. Nearby, the skeleton of the Ulysses wreck offers a haunting backdrop, its iron ribs teeming with life. Sheltered from currents, these sites provide a calm, immersive theater for witnessing the ocean’s eerie and beautiful nighttime transformation.

SS Thistlegorm

SS Thistlegorm

15–30m

One of the world's most famous wreck dives. A British WWII cargo steamer sunk in 1941, resting at 30 metres with trucks, motorcycles, and rifles still in the holds. Massive schooling fish, barracudas, turtles, and Napoleon wrasse. Advanced recommended due to depth and occasional currents. Wreck Specialty and Nitrox ideal for this dive.

Ras Mohamed National Park

Ras Mohamed National Park

5–40m+

The most renowned marine reserve in the Red Sea. Vertical walls, coral gardens, plateaus and drop-offs with extensive hard and soft coral growth. Shark Reef & Yolanda Reef with huge schools of fish. Jackfish Alley and Eel Garden with drift dives along coral walls. From gentle reef gardens to deeper drift dives.

Brother Islands

Brother Islands

5–40m

October's pelagic peak at the Brother Islands. Oceanic whitetips arrive with bold confidence. Scalloped hammerheads patrol the northern plateau of Little Brother — prime dawn dive opportunities. The Numidia wreck drapes vertically from 8m into the abyss, soft corals in full bloom with massive clouds of orange anthias. Grey reef sharks are incredibly active on the plateaus, often queuing up at cleaning stations. Water at 27–28°C with exceptional visibility.

Sites depend on weather, currents, and conditions. Our crew optimises in real-time for the best diving.
