About this site
Catalog

A sheltered site near Sharm's Hadaba coast built around three coral pinnacles rising from a sandy bottom, with swim-throughs and overhangs that give it its 'temple' name. Easy conditions, abundant macro life, lionfish, glassfish and the occasional seahorse make it a top spot for training, night dives and photography. Both shore and boat access are common.
