About this site

Abu Lou Lou, the house reef off the former Hilton beach in Nuweiba, is an easy shore dive renowned for its dense macro life. The shallow fringing reef and adjoining seagrass flats shelter stonefish, lionfish, crocodilefish, turtles and countless juveniles, making it a superb training, night and macro-photography site. Calm, accessible conditions suit novices and long bottom times.
