Satoya, Ägypten
★★★★☆
(476)
Shaab Sharm is an impressive coastal reef near Marsa Alam, about 12 km off the Egyptian coast. It is around 700 m long, gradually drops over 200 m deep and is surrounded by strong currents. These promote rich coral growth and attract large fish. Night dives are not possible here.
Steep wall or plateau, which offers everything you would expect from such an exposed dive site. Shark, turtle, triggerfish...
