Reef

El Fanadir North

Reef

Gota Abu Ramada

5-22 m

A compact coral island often called the Aquarium for its busy marine life. Sheltered sections, sandy patches and gentle depths make it one of Hurghada's most rewarding sites for newer divers, while the outer reef keeps experienced divers interested.
