Description
The Ultimate Red Sea route is the most comprehensive journey through the Egyptian Red Sea: ten nights connecting the northern wrecks and reefs with the southern marine parks. The itinerary typically includes the SS Thistlegorm and the Abu Nuhas wrecks, the Straits of Tiran with its Jackson, Woodhouse, Thomas, and Gordon reefs, and the Marine Park of Ras Mohamed. In the Safaga area, you'll find the wreck of the Salem Express, while the south features three renowned oceanic sites: Brothers, home to the wrecks of Numidia and Aida; Daedalus, famous for its schools of hammerhead sharks in the summer; and Elphinstone, an isolated wall with intense currents. This is a demanding and far-reaching itinerary aimed at experienced divers seeking to combine historical wrecks, walls, and large pelagics in one voyage across the Red Sea.
