Scarabee·DahabScarabee·DahabA historic Red Sea town with some of Egypt's most pristine, easily-accessed house reefs — walk in off the jetty to untouched hard coral, away from the resort rush.
Each site gets its own map, photo and dive profile (in production). Depths and levels below.
Superb shore-entry reefs straight off the jetty: healthy hard coral, walls and sandy shelves rich in turtles, morays, octopus and reef fish — unlimited shore diving at your own pace.
Coral gardens and small drop-offs a short boat or shore hop away, with pristine table corals and reliable macro life.
Deeper reef systems and mini-walls with pelagic passers-by — the more adventurous El Quseir dives.
The old Ottoman port, desert tracks and the Eastern Desert's quiet — a slower, older Egypt.
Dive when you like, as often as you like, from the house reef — ideal for courses and relaxed weeks.
Day trips south to the big-name reefs when you want them.
Boutique dive hotels — mostly German, Swiss and Italian divers.
