10 Days / 9 Nights - North (Dahab)

The Kimon M is also known as lenses freighter because of thes charge. The bow protrudes slightly out of the water. The destroyed stern lies at the deepest point at 30 meters.

The once in Travemünde spilled from the stack Chrisola K failed 1981 the reef of Abu Nuhas. The "tiles Freighter" is quite badly damaged. This requires for the diver a special attention.

The steamboat Carnatic is considered as one of the finest wrecks in the Red Sea. The ship had wine and allegedly even gold loaded, sank 1869. From the wreck lying on its side, the fuselage envelope is really just obtained. The partially dissolved planks offer photographers bizarre motifs. The ship had, moreover, a brief guest appearance in Jules Verne's novel "Around the World in 80 Days".

The machine room and the well divable bridge are the highlights of the freighter, which failed on the reef of Abu Nuhas in 1983. Coveted was its cargo of tropical wood.

The coral garden which drops slowly stage, is a paradise for turtles. Sometimes even leopard sharks can be observed.

The Dolphin House is the western point of the reef complex of Shaab el Erg. The chance of the encounter with a pod of dolphins is very large.

Solitary large reef south of Umm Gamar. Immediately after the entry lies the wreck of a Patrol Boat, the lowest point, the stern, at about 35 meters.

The reef surrounds an island and lies on a wide, flat, sandy plateau (approx. 10 to 20 metres deep), which merges into a steep slope (drop-off). A lagoon to the south offers sheltered anchorages.

It is a large, elongated reef that encloses an extensive, shallow lagoon. This lagoon often serves as a sheltered anchorage for ships overnight.
The main attraction is the wreck of the British merchant ship Dunraven, which ran aground on the reef and sank in 1876. Today, the ship lies keel up (upside down) at a depth of 15 to 30 metres and is broken into two large pieces.

To the north lies the wreck of a freighter (the Cypriot freighter Lara or Loullia), the remains of which are still visible.
Impressive, steep walls. The reef has a large sandy plateau on the north side and a beautiful coral pinnacle on the west side.
In summer, the northern plateau is famous for sightings of schools of hammerhead sharks.

The longest, narrowest and most exposed reef with a long, narrow coral wall that drops steeply. It has no buoy or anchorage, which is why it is almost exclusively dived as a fast drift dive.
An exciting dive where you drift along the wall.
Excellent chances of seeing grey reef sharks and white tip reef sharks, as well as large schools of barracuda and mackerel.

The reef wall drops steeply. The famous Thomas Canyon begins at approx. 35 metres and extends to a depth of over 90 metres.
Beautifully overgrown, colourful walls. The canyon is only accessible to specially trained technical divers.

The wide and shallow reef is known for its unique topography and the remains of a small wreck.
It has a distinctive, almost circular layout. In shallow water lies the wreck of the Lovilla (or Gorgonian), whose remains are visible and washed by the current.
In the shallower area, there is a sandy bottom where guitarfish and blue-spotted stingrays can be spotted.

A massive, vertical sinkhole that extends from the reef top (shallow water) to a depth of over 100 metres. Divers enter it via a shallow entrance ("The Saddle") at a depth of approximately 6 metres.
Recreational divers only dive the outer reef and the edge of the hole. The famous arch passage is located at a depth of approximately 56 metres and is reserved exclusively for technical divers with specialised training and equipment.

A fascinating, narrow underwater canyon that has cut into the reef. The entrance is shallow. The canyon itself begins at approx. 20 metres and opens up at approx. 30 metres into a chamber known as the "cathedral".
A unique diving experience in a darker, enclosed space (cavern/grotto). The opening at 30 metres allows you to exit into open water. Ideal for lamp diving and geological observation.

A protected area with three shallow, coral-covered lagoons (pools) connected by sandy channels and coral tunnels.
Known for its intense play of light, shallow, dense coral gardens and rich variety of macro life. Offers sheltered conditions and is therefore very relaxing.
