Diving in El Quseir
The majority of diving offered this region by dive centres and dive resorts is done from shore and luckily there is more than enough things to see from those sites. There are a few sites offshore but due to it being a protected area there are limited mooring lines for boats.
Due to its large reef walls there are opportunities for drift diving at Elphnistone dive site, depending on where you are dropped with the boat. At Zereb Kebir there is the opportunity to dive in caves and caverns if you enjoy going through the marine life, not just above or beside it.
