Top 7 DIVING SPOTS in EGYPT!

 Complain as you about Egypt and its myriad problems, as soon as  you actually exit the borders of Cairo, you will see a damn gorgeous  country. Screw the Bahamas, you will see some of the most beautiful beaches  ever, and when it comes to diving, Egypt is dominating. Take that Bahamas  (sorry, Egypt's finally the best at something and it's gotten us unusually  excited). Anyway, in our new and improved state of loving Egypt, here  are the best seven spots in Egypt to go diving, whether it's for a crazy  rainbow of coloured corals, the incredible marine life, or sunken  shipwrecks.

Ras Mohamed is every diver wet dream anyway and Anemone City got tons of clownfish  Nem0?pff found!

6- Eel Garden, Dahab

This must look creepy but, Eel Garden in Dahab looks kind of like that but without the morbid  . Long eels are vertically popping their heads out from the sand  for a insane visual effect.

5- Jackson Reef, Straits of Tiran

 Jackson Reef hits the jackpot when it comes to diving,  alot of vivid corals, and some few predators, including sharks. FISH ARE FRIENDS, NOT FOOD.  

4- The Blue Hole, Dahab

 The Blue Hole is infamous in diving circles, not so much  for it's wicked underwater life as its ability to take lives. It's  actually a submarine sinkhole with a depth of around 130m and advanced  divers who try and do the dive run the risk of nitrogen narcosis as they  descend, Don't try this at home,  kids.  

3- Thistlegorm Dive, Ras Mohamed

The SS Thistlegorm was a WW2 British ship that sank in 1941 and over  the years the wreckage became a seriously cool dive site. You can swim  through the drowned boat that's still got vehicles on it and everything.  It's like an untouched underwater museum. Which is way less boring than  an on-land museum.  

2- Abu Dabbab, Marsa Alam

Abu Dabbab? Yes this place is marvelous,  This diving spot is famous for the of turtles that float freely in the area, as well as the two see cows (weirdname!) that just  chill there and endure curious divers. AND THEY ARE SO CUTE. 

1- Dolphin House, El Gouna

And this is where you can live out all your  mermaid/Flipper fantasies and befriend a dolphin and become best buds  and one with the sea.

VIVA EGYPT!
