A truly diverse route is offered by the Fury Shoals and Wadi El Gemal. This trip is not only ideal for fans of macro diving and night dives, but it also makes photographers’ hearts beat faster—especially in one of the many stunning canyons. A spectacular play of light can be experienced, for example, at the dive site Malahi.
If you are traveling with a non-diving companion, this is exactly the right tour.
Probably the most famous “banana reef” in the Red Sea, Sataya Reef is widely known for its exceptionally high population of Spinner Dolphin. After hunting, the dolphins retreat into the sheltered lagoon inside the reef to rest and sleep.
On the outer side of the reef, large schools of massive tuna are frequently sighted—so big that, from a distance, they can easily be mistaken for sharks. Grey Reef Shark and Blacktip Reef Shark are also commonly encountered here.
A dive site that many divers remember for its small wreck, the Tien Hsing A. Just below the surface, the small tug drops down to a depth of around 16.5 meters, making it an equally interesting spot for snorkeling. The vessel is believed to have sunk around 80–100 years ago and is now considered one of the most beautifully overgrown wrecks in the entire Red Sea. Hard corals have settled everywhere, and inside the wreck, your fin kicks are closely watched by thousands of glassfish.
In late summer and early autumn, many different species of Nudibranch can be seen crawling across the almost snow-white seabed.
It’s not uncommon to spot the occasional Dugong during crossings from one dive site to another.
This tour also offers the opportunity to stop at one of the offshore islands. The sunsets there are spectacular and unforgettable.
The exact route and dive sites are subject to weather conditions and may differ from the planned itinerary.
