About this site
Catalog

Gamul Soraya is a medium round coral block reached in about 40 minutes from Safaga, guarded to the southeast by several submerged bommies that never break the surface. Easy depths around 12 to 18 m and gentle conditions make it an excellent morning or training dive. The Acropora-rich slopes swarm with anthias and host colourful tiger flatworms among the corals.
