Diving
The
highlight of diving around Marsa Alam is the dive site of
Elphinstone Reef which can be accessed as a day dive. This
reef drops off into the deep blue and is famous for schooling
hammerheads and oceanic white tip sharks. Other famous sites
include Dolphin Reef and Fury Shoals all of which can be
dived from a land based holiday. Another popular way of
diving this area is combining a hotel with a mini liveaboard
where you get the best of both worlds.
Accommodation
Even
though the eco villages of Nakari and Shagra are not as
isolated as they used to be there still remains the pioneering
spirit. While others nearby are experiencing home from home
comforts here you will notice the stars, the sea laping
on the shore and the silence of the desert whilst around
a camp fire.
