Diving at dive sites near the desert village Nuweiba

The desert town of Nuweiba is located north of Dahab. Nuweiba is trying to become a backpacker's paradise such as Dahab, but now it still has a port like appearance. Diving is excellent though with a lot of shore dives, perfect coral formations, canyons and caves. It is also a perfect location to learn how to dive and if you are not only interested in diving alone, it also has something special. It is possible to combine Bedouin camel camps with diving and spend the night in the desert. Diving Nuweiba is nice with some pretty good dive sites to dive at.

The water temperature is nice at 20 degrees in winter to 25 degrees in summer. The Egyptian climate is hot and dry, ranging from 18 degrees in winter to 40 in summer, even hotter when going into the desert. Diving can be done year around, with visibilities between 10 and 50 meters, depending on the place you visit and wind conditions.
