The snorkelling around Dahab is truly exceptional, not many places in the world can boast such colour and variety of fish and coral just a few swim strokes from shore.
The front of Sea Dancer (Bannerfish Bay & Lighthouse) is a shallow and sheltered and a great place to start, most people are amazed at what is to be seen literally seconds from our front door.
Slightly further afield, The Islands and Eel Garden are easy to reach by foot or bicycle and offer a true ‘aquarium-type’ experience.
Other sites such as the ‘Blue Hole’ and ‘Southern Oasis’ are fantastic days out and can also be reached by foot or bike but are normally done as day trips by jeep.
For an extra special day why not take a camel or boat to the protected areas of Ras Abu Galum or Gabr-el-Bint? These areas are of exceptional natural beauty and an experience of a lifetime.
Whatever your experience and confidence level, Dahab will amaze you with it’s underwater richness and if you want to really get the most from snorkelling why not enrol in a ‘Free-diving’ course so you can really get down amongst the fish!
*please note that sites such as the Blue Hole are only suitable for confident swimmers and others such as the Eel Garden can experience fairly strong currents, always ask for local advice before venturing into the water without a guide.
