Simply Magnificent

Egypt · 7 nights
Diving in Egypt — Red Sea

The “Simply Magnificent” route covers the best dive sites of the deep south Red Sea — Daedalus, Rocky, Zabargad, and St. Johns. Remote reefs with pristine corals and diverse marine life.

Daedalus Reef — walls plunging into the abyss with soft corals. Encounters with hammerhead, silvertip, and oceanic whitetip sharks. Rocky Island — sheer vertical walls with strong currents. Zabargad — underwater pinnacle with giant gorgonians and black corals.

St. Johns — reef system near the Sudanese border: Habili Ali and Habili Gafaar — underwater mountains with currents and sharks. Gota Soraya is considered one of the best Red Sea walls. The route requires minimum 50 dives in logbook — currents and depths are serious.
