Koshkasha is a dive site which is often used as a night dive by live-aboards. With its sandy bottom, shallow depths and full coloring feather stars at night it is perfect for that. But there are also many large pinnacles and small caves full of anthias, but you will also see octopus and blue spotted stingrays.

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.
