About this dive site

This dive site, known as Tiger House, is situated south of the world-renowned Blue Hole in Dahab, Egypt. It features a beautiful coral garden and a shallow coral reef leading to a deeper canyon, particularly popular among technical divers. The entry point is over the reef top, making it accessible only during calm conditions and high tide. While there's no explicit history provided, its proximity to the Blue Hole suggests it's a well-established site in the region, offering a diverse underwater topography from shallow reef to significant depth.

Divers at Tiger House can expect to encounter a vibrant array of reef fish, including colorful parrotfish, distinct triggerfish, elegant bannerfish, and countless small damselfish. The 'nice coral garden' indicates healthy hard and soft coral formations, providing a rich habitat for these various species and a visually stunning underwater landscape.

The best time to visit Tiger House is during periods of little wind and high tide to ensure safe entry over the reef top. Highlights include exploring the pristine shallow coral reef and the impressive deep canyon, making it suitable for both recreational and technical divers. Freedivers will also appreciate the shallow coral gardens before descending into the deeper sections. Always check local conditions before planning your dive due to the specific entry requirements.
