Port entry/exit : Hurghada
7 D / 6 N from 850 EUR/person/shared twin cabin onwards
Explore the colorful reefs of the Straits of Tiran - Jackson Reef, Woodhouseriff, Thomas and Gordon Reefs. Due to frequent currents, these unique, towering formations offer beautiful coral growth and regular pelagic sightings.
On this route we dive among other things the famous four wrecks of Abu Nuhas, the ship graveyard. This reef is located near the shipping channel to the Suez Canal and has required more ships than any other in the Red Sea. They are fantastically staged for photography and covered in coral: especially the Carnatic, which was sunk in 1869.
Away from the wrecks we will also visit the reefs of Hurghada and Safaga, which are very rich and diverse. A variety of colorful walls and hard coral gardens with many colorful fish make it worth a visit.7 D / 6 N from 850 EUR/person/shared twin cabin onwards
