About this site
Catalog

The Canyon is a narrow fissure in the reef plate that begins around 12 m and drops through a sandy chimney to roughly 30 m, with light beams piercing the dark crack. Divers descend into the canyon, swim along its dark interior, and exit through openings adorned with glassfish and soft coral. A sandy plateau, the Fish Bowl and the Neptune coral head complete a classic Dahab dive.
