Al Kahfain (Wreck)

About this dive site

This dive site, Al Kahfain, is a wreck dive located in Egypt. The dive is typically a one-way drift dive, starting at the wreck and proceeding over a coral garden towards anchorages on the east side of Shaab Sheer. Divers should plan their dive according to wind conditions, with a south wind being favorable. The dive involves navigating past the wreck and drifting over the coral formations. No historical information on the wreck is provided in the description.

The marine life is abundant with all the typical Red Sea fish species. A variety of beautiful hard coral species populate the site, providing shelter and food for the fish. The coral garden adds to the vibrant underwater landscape. While not explicitly listed, various other small invertebrates and crustaceans are likely found within the reef system.

The best time to visit the Red Sea for diving is generally during the warmer months (approximately April to October), when visibility is usually at its best, the waters are calm, and the marine life is most active. Experienced divers may find more challenging conditions during periods with stronger currents. It's recommended to check local weather and dive conditions before embarking on your dive.
