About this site
Catalog

Named after the nearby Multinational Force and Observers base south of Nuweiba, the MFO dive (also called Maagana) follows a gentle coral slope descending onto sand. The reef carries good hard-coral cover with morays, lionfish, glassfish and occasional turtles, while the sandy fringe hosts rays and goatfish. Calm and accessible, it is a steady all-rounder shore dive.
