Eel Garden
★★★★★
(692)
In Dahab directly, approx. 7min approach. Entrance over wide reef roof, therefore only with little/no wind and high tide diveable. Wide sand field with countless garden eels. Shallow return (7-3m) on a beautiful, brightly coloured reef. Partial counter current on the way back.
Eels upon eels! Curious pyramid boxfishes and razorfishes react to kicked up sand and come very close. Sometimes small pipehorses in the shallows.
