Diving in Dahab and Dive Sites

The reef in front of Daniela Diving Center is truly amazing, with a vast amount of untouched corals on the plateau as well as the vertical drop-off.

The best conditions for entry and exit are during high tide and calm winds. To enter and exit easily, we pass through one of the three lagoons, snorkeling to the edge of the reef plateau, passing through one of the natural pools. Upon descending at the edge, we discover a maximum depth of 12 meters. Following the plateau at a heading of 120 degrees, we reach the vertical drop-off starting at a depth of 25 meters.

All along the house reef, from north to south, there are beautiful and large table corals, most of which are almost intact. Attractions: stonefish, turtles, crocodile fish, rays, barracudas, surgeonfish, Napoleon wrasse. Entry/Exit: Easy at high tide and calm weather conditions.

The Red Sea is the closest coral sea to Western Europe and enjoys a pleasant climate year-round. Dahab offers more than 24 dive sites.

Dahab is located between two nature reserves: Nabq to the south and Ras Abou Galloum to the north. All dive sites in Dahab are protected. Famous dive sites in Dahab such as the Blue Hole, the Canyon, and the Bells are very close to our hotel and are part of our daily dives.

Diving in Dahab is mostly shore diving, with a few exceptions. We simply drive along the coast in a jeep or truck, gear up on the beach, and begin our dive. Shore diving means you have more time to relax and enjoy your extra time during your vacation.
