Northern Dahab > Blue Hole
The Blue Hole is probably the most infamous dive site in Egypt. A cavernous hole approximately 25 m across plunges from the reef table down to unfathomable depths. “The Arch” starts at around 56 m with the base of the arch at around 120 meters, it connects the blue hole to the open ocean. The abyss Blue Hole and Arch is is beyond the limits of recreational diving. Enter the water from the beach. It is marked "easy entrance". Cross the hole and leave it through the exit at 7 m. The Blue hole hardly offers corals contrary to the beautiful external wall. The coral growth and its slendid colours are breathtaking. Descend there to your chosen depth. Make sure you stick to a depth well within your ability! On your way back up, search for the rare red anemone in 10 m depth. In recent years The Blue Hole has earned itself a bad reputation. Many have died there testing their limits beneath the deep archway. The cliffs around the bay bear their epitaphs. The danger of the Blue Hole is that it has no bottom. To make a mistake here can have serious consequences, with no second chances. People trying to discover their limits only find them when they have gone too far.
