Red Island (Jazirat Hamra)
★★★★★
(20)
This island has beautiful slopes with lots of soft coral. It’s big enough to be split into two dive sites: South and North. Both sites are good for the Macro and Night diving. Depth: 5–25 meters. REMARKS: There is a mild current around the island especially at its south and north tips.
MARINE LIFE: schools of Jackfish, Fusiliers, Rainbowfish, Angelfish, Batfish, Moray Eels, Stingrays, Lobster, and if you are lucky, you might see Zebra sharks or Eagle rays.
