Elphinstone North
★★★★☆
(4,301)
Located 30km from Marsa Alam, Elphinstone North is one of the main dive sites in this area with lots of sharks and some of the most healthy coral reefs in the region. It is a 90 minute boat ride to reach, however definitely worth the trip!
Common sightings include oceanic whitetip sharks, (longmanus), tiger sharks, hammerhead shark, barracudas, and more.
