El Fanadir

Depth 12 - 40 m

Fanadir is one of our favorite dive sites in Hurghada, and for a good reason. At first glance, it may seem unremarkable, but beneath the surface, it offers an astonishing abundance of marine life unmatched by any other site in the area.

This long reef provides endless diving opportunities, from shallow dives along the coral formations to deep wall dives for more experienced divers. The sloping sandy bottom transitions into a vertical drop-off, creating a perfect habitat for various species. Divers can encounter large schools of fish, moray eels, scorpionfish,octopuses, crocodile fish and even the occasional eagle ray gliding past. The reef itself is covered with colorful soft corals and sea fans, while the sandy patches are home to blue-spotted stingrays and garden eels.

Whether you prefer a relaxed exploration of the reef or an exciting deep dive along the wall, Fanadir always delivers a memorable underwater experience.
