SHAAB MAKSOUR

North-east of Fury Shoals is Shaab Maksour, a reef around 1,5 km long, surrounded by steep walls, it is similar to Elphinstone Reef and sightings of turtles, rays and sharks are known on the the north and south plateaus.

DAEDALUS REEF

Daedalus Reef is a 400m long and 100m wide  standalone reef in the Egyptian Red Sea situated about 90 kilometers from Marsa Alam. There is a small artificial island in the center of the reef, which hosts a lighthouse constructed in 1863 and rebuilt in 1931. Daedalus reef is a well-known place for diving because of good chances to see pelagic fish, such as hammerhead sharks, and an abundance of corals. In the high season one can find many dive safari boats staying overnight, anchored to the reef.

ELPHINSTONE REEF

Elphinstone Reef is one of the most famous dive sites in the World and offers some of the best scuba diving in the Red Sea!

The Elphinstone reef is located 12km offshore and about 30km from Marsa Alam. This dive site is famous for its wonderful drift dives along deep steep walls. The coral is really great and unspoiled.The Elphinstone Reef is also famous for being one of the few places on Earth where you can dive with the Oceanic Whitetip Shark as well as Harmmerhead Sharks.

PANORAMA REEF

Panorama Reef is one of the highlights of Safaga. Large coral formations with steep walls, which run more than four hundred meters into the depths, determine the underwater scenario here. You will see several caves and crevices with gorgonia’s and soft corals. On the south and north plateau you regularly encounter reef sharks. Panorama Reef is perfect for a drift dive. It is large enough to make several dives.
