Daedalus Reef
★★★★☆
(21,073)
Deadalus Reef can only be reached by Liveaboard boats and is one of the top dive sites on most diver’s wish list. A stand alone 400m long reef approx. 80km away from Marsa Alam, this spectacular reef is difficult to miss as it even has its own lighthouse.
With 20 - 30m of visibility there are frequent sightings of hammerhead sharks, barracudas, travely, eagle rays, and manta rays.
