SS Carnatic, wreck

The most breathtaking wreck in the Abu Nuhas area. Very popular with UW photographers. The bow is in only 10m of water. The stern’s max depth is 25m. The stern is laid on its left side, which can throw divers off a bit when they dive through. The engine room is a spectacular sight, full of glassfish, and the mast and anchor winch are full of soft coral.

One of the four famous wrecks located on the Abu Nuhas reef. It’s about 2 hours and 40 minutes to the north of Elgouna. The bow sits at 4m deep and the stern about 27m. This wreck carries a lot of tiles. The body of the wreck is still in good condition. Exploring the captain’s cabin and the engine room are exciting for the adventurous diver.

Este é o quarto naufrágio localizado na área de Abu Nuhas. O naufrágio não é tão grande quanto os outros. Ele fica muito próximo do naufrágio do Chrisoula K, dando aos mergulhadores a possibilidade de experimentar os dois naufrágios juntos como um mergulho à deriva, se eles tiverem ar suficiente. O naufrágio tem entre 5m e 27m de profundidade.

About 2 hours and 15 minutes away from Elgouna to the north, this site his home to a nice coral garden, sloping down to a wonderful coral drop off. This is an easy dive for all levels of divers. There is a current that comes from the north direction sometimes, making it a drift dive at times.

Shabrur siyoul, ou recife cego, como é comumente chamado, é um recife onde o coral mal se encontra debaixo d'água. Este é mais um mergulho, pois é quase uma viagem de 2 horas de Elgouna para o norte. O platô sul é mais popular para mergulhar com belos corais macios a 20m. A parede norte é ótima para mergulhos à deriva.

Siyoul Kebir, also known as Ras Siyoul, is on the Siyoul Island, about 1 hour and 45 minutes to the north of Elgouna.

Sometimes there is a current which can be used for drift dives.

O 'irmãozinho' de Siyoul Kebir, este site fica a quase 2 horas de Elgouna ao norte. É um mergulho agradável e fácil, adequado para todos os níveis de mergulhadores, começando de 2-3 m de profundidade a 14-15 m de profundidade. Há a possibilidade de um mergulho à deriva e de encontrar alguns golfinhos e raios de águia.

One of the most beautiful wall / drop off dive sites in this area . Untouched coral reefs with both soft and hard coral. There is a current most of the time, therefore this is always drift dive. This site is recommended only for more experienced divers.
