Route Description - Daedalus, Zabargad and Rocky Island
The Daedalus Reef, Zabergad and Rocky Island are part of the national Marine Park South. The park offers reefs along breathtaking walls covered with stunning soft coral and beautiful plateaus.
Daedalus Reef (south of the Brother Islands); in the north the reef drops down from a wall into the depth. Very strong currents. Meeting point for Hammerheads and Longimanus. Rocky Island it is surrounded by a narrow closed fringing reef. Fascinating reefs along beautiful walls. The major highlight are the sharks. Zabargad here you have the possibility to hover over drop offs or simply enjoy the impressing coral towers while swimming by. Turtles use the island as a nesting place. Our opinion: Very strong currents and steep reefs offer challenging, exciting and unforgettable dives. Night dives are not allowed in the Marine Park South.
Route Description - North/Wreck Tour
North of Hurghada the Red Sea is divided into two arms, the Gulf of Aqaba and the Gulf of Suez. The entrance to the Gulf of Suez is the Gubal Strait where numerous wrecks lie.
A few of the tours dive sites are: Abu Nuhas which offers 4 wrecks. The F.E Giannis D, a Greek cargo ship, Kimon M, Chrisoula K the tile transporter and the Carnatic an old post ship. The Rosalie Möller an English ship that was sunk by German airplanes. However, this wreck is very rarely visited because of its location. The Thistlegorm maybe the wreck highlight of the Red Sea. An English war supply ship that sunk while it was at anchor with all its freight. You can see trucks, motorcycles and locomotives. Our opinion: this is a safari with a focus on wrecks, but nevertheless, a lot of coral gardens.
