Giannis D, wreck

This wreck sits in between the Giannis D and the Chrisoula K. It lays in 22m to 27m of water. It’s not a big wreck compared to the others, but still very interesting for divers due to its famously exposed ribs and the glass fish inside.

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.

This is the fourth wreck located in the Abu Nuhas area. The wreck is not as big as the others. It lays very close to the Chrisoula K wreck, giving divers the possibility of experiencing both wrecks together as a drift dive, if they have enough air. The wreck lays between 5m to 27m deep.

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, or blind reef as it is commonly called, is a reef where the coral is just barely underwater. This is a further dive as it is almost a 2 hour ride from Elgouna to the north. The south plateau is more popular to dive with beautiful soft coral at 20m. The north wall is great for drift diving.

Siyoul Kebir, also known as Ras Siyoul, is on the Siyoul Island, about 1 hour and 45 minutes to the north of Elgouna. This dive site its suitable for all levels with nice coral reefs and 2 nice big blocks of corals under the mooring line full of anthias fish. Sometimes there is a current which can be used for drift dives.

2 hours in the north direction are the Siyoul Islands with different and nice dive sites. El Gilwa is on the westside of the Siyoul Kebir Island and has a lot of nice coral blocks covered in soft corals. Sometimes there can be a strong current here.

The ’small brother’ for Siyoul Kebir, this site is almost 2hours from Elgouna to the north. It is a nice and easy dive, suitable for all level of divers, starting from 2-3 m deep to 14-15 m deep. There is a possibility for a drift dive and to meet some dolphins and eagle rays.

2 hours in the north direction are the Siyoul Islands with different and nice dive sites. Siyoul Lagoon is on the north side of Siyoul Soraya Island. It has a nice main reef and a nice plateau/coral garden which you can reach through a small channel.

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.
