Ras El Arab
★★★★☆
(152)
20 min by boat south of Makadi bay. Beautiful drop off starting from the surface to a maximum depth of 80m. Can be done either as a stationary dive or as a drift dive. One of diver’s favorite place around Makadi bay,
Due to the great depth, big chance of big life encounter such as dolphins, sharks and turtles and you can always find the usual suspects of the red sea.
