Description:

One of the most beautiful dive sites in Dahab. Approx. 9 years ago an earthquake made the first coral fall down from the islands and created an area called the “Maze”… The Islands offer tropical corals at its best, with a wide range of hard and soft coral, combined with outstanding topography. You can explore a maze of coral boulders, alleyways, amphitheatres, valleys and gullies all in less than 18 meters. After the entry follows a wide sandy valley before entering the intricate reef system. The quantity and quality of the corals is a phenomenon. You can see plenty of big groupers, glittering anthias, jewel-like schools of glass fish, napoleons, lionfish and a dense shoal of barracudas usually roams the northern section of the reef. The Islands is a all time favourite dive site for everyone who dives there, it is defiantly a real piece of paradise.
