About this dive site
This dive site, Blue Hole South Reef in Dahab, Egypt, is a renowned underwater destination celebrated for its dramatic landscapes and abundant marine life. The reef wall plunges to an impressive depth exceeding 200 meters, offering exciting challenges for experienced divers. Divers typically begin their explorations at The Bells, a chimney descending approximately 27 meters into the blue depths. This area teems with diverse species, including trevallies, graceful sea turtles, and various shark types like hammerheads and oceanic white tips. Colorful corals and unique nudibranchs add to the reef's vibrant beauty. Visibility is consistently excellent, typically ranging from 30 to 40 meters, making it an ideal location for underwater exploration. Be aware of strong currents, particularly near the Blue Hole itself, requiring careful navigation. This site is suitable for divers with advanced experience and proper training.
