Ben El Gebel

Ben El Gebel is a hidden gem among Hurghada’s dive sites, known for its striking underwater topography and rich marine life. The name translates to "Between the Mountains," referring to its location between two islands.

The site features a mix of shallow coral gardens and deeper walls, offering diverse dive experiences. Large coral formations provide shelter for schools of fusiliers, snappers, and bannerfish, while moray eels and octopuses hide within the reef's crevices. The sandy bottom areas are often home to blue-spotted stingrays, and lucky divers might even spot an eagle ray passing by.
