About this site

Lying to the south of the Taba Heights resorts, the Mersa El Muqabila plateau displays a great wealth of hard and soft corals over a gently sloping reef. The site is known for its dense clouds of anthias, resident groupers and the chance of passing eagle rays over the deeper sand. Reliable conditions and abundant macro life make it a favourite for both training and relaxed reef diving.
