El Gouna Diving and the Red Sea

The Red Sea is one of the seven underwater wonders of the world, offering a diverse multitude of reefs, wall, wrecks and abundant marine life (about 25% of which is unique to the Red Sea). Diving from El Gouna has several advantages over other Red Sea destinations. Firstly, most of the dive sites close to El Gouna are still virgin and undisturbed. Secondly, some of the Red Sea's best wrecks are closer and more accessible from El Gouna than from any other location... And lastly, the number of people in relation to the number of dive-sites is far more favourable than some other overdeveloped Red Sea destinations.

Water temperatures rarely drop below 20 degrees Celsius in winter, and range between 24 to 28 degrees in summer- Visibility is usually excellent with warm temperatures all year round.

All diving centers run daily trips to the local diving sites, and further destinations such as Thistlegorm, Ras Mohammed, Straights of Gobal and the Safaga area are also available.

El Gouna's diving centers also organize daily snorkeling trips, where you can see dolphins, turtles, and lots of colorful fish, while exploring the living splendor of the coral reefs of the Red Sea.
