It’s only a few steps into the water from the base. At only five metres, divers will find a large seagrass bed. If you are lucky, you will encounter one of at least three seahorses who live there. The reefs into the bay slope steeply in the north and south and enable fantastic dives. Furthermore, we also offer trips with the minibus to additional rather lonely dive sites between Coral Garden and El Quesier. Boat trips to the outer reefs at Safaga are also possible for guests at Coral Garden.
