Rocky Island is one of Egypt’s southernmost dive sites, located very close to Zabargad Island. Despite its small size, this remote and dramatic island boasts sheer drop-offs, powerful currents, and extraordinary marine life.
The reef walls are adorned with vibrant soft corals, black coral trees, and massive sea fans, while cracks and ledges hide moray eels, scorpionfish, stonefish, and rare nudibranches. In the blue, divers frequently encounter schools of barracuda, tuna, grey reef sharks, hammerheads, and silky sharks.
Due to its strong currents and exposed location, this site is best suited for advanced divers. However, the thrill of drift diving and the opportunity to see large pelagic species make Rocky Island an unforgettable dive destination.
