More southern dive sites of Egypt are located between Marsa Galeb and Wadi Gamal. The main town in this area is Marsa Alam, which offers good accommodations, equipment and day dives possibilities. Dive sites in Marsa Alam are accessible from shore and tend to have been eaten by crown of thorn star fish, but there are many very nice reefs left such as the dive site Elphinstone Reef. Still, most divers get here by live-aboard, which often start at Quseir.
The water temperature is nice at 21 degrees in winter to 27 degrees in summer (early October). The Egyptian Climate is hot and dry, ranging from 45 degrees in summer to 22 in winter. Diving can be done year around, with visibilities between 10 and 50 meters, depending on the place you visit and the wind conditions. It is going to be an adventure coming here. You will arrive in a very sleepy town, but it is still possible to arrange the things you came here fore, but be patient!
