Specifications:

At the southwest side of Tiran Island is a dive site named Coral Garden or Hushasha. It is a sandy area full of coral heads which gradually descents to 25 meters. The area is full of small caves and cavelets which are full of life. The pinnacles are teeming with the common reef fish such as some of the common butterfly, banner and angel species. It is a very nice site if you like many fish but don’t expect to see something extraordinary.

Sinafar Island is a great area where many dive sites are yet to be explored. It is an area sometimes visited by live-aboards but not often by day boats from Sharm el-Sheik. There are amphora’s from the Ottoman, Greek and Roman empire, great walls, nice plateaus, caves, great hard and soft corals and spectacular marine life. Because it is not often dived, species are not used to divers yet and are often very curious. Colors are spectacular and diving can be done by divers with all levels of expertise. There are shallow, deep, easy and very difficult dives, which you should visit if you like to explore parts of the Red Sea. Safari boats to this place can be booked in Sharm el-Sheik and they will make sure for some interesting and entertaining experience.
