Best Dive Sites in Dahab

Dive Sites

Dahab is a traditional Bedouin town in Egypt, located about 90 km north of Sharm El Sheikh Airport and stretching along 52 km of the Gulf of Aqaba coastline. It offers a wide range of activities and a vibrant atmosphere, as well as dive sites for all levels — including the world-famous Blue Hole.

While most dive sites in Dahab are accessed by jeep, some exceptional locations in the south — such as Gabr El Bint, Shugurat, and Shaab Said — can be reached by boat. To the north, Ras Abu Galum is accessible by speedboat or even by camel for a unique and unforgettable experience.

At Circle Divers Dahab, we categorise the dive sites by region: North, Middle, and South.

North dive sites: Ras Abu Galum, Bells, Blue Hole, Canyon, Abu Talha, Abu Helal
Middle dive sites: Eel Garden, Lighthouse, Bannerfish Bay, Mashraba, the Islands
South dive sites: Golden Blocks, Moray Garden, Three Pools, Um Sid, Caves

Our experienced local dive guides will always recommend the safest and best ways to explore each site — because safety always comes first.
