Route Description - North-Tiran-Dahab
Explore the classic North & Tiran route in the Red Sea, featuring the legendary reefs of Jackson, Thomas, Woodhouse and Gordon. This itinerary combines dramatic wall and drift diving with iconic sites such as Ras Mohammed National Park and the famous SS Thistlegorm wreck, offering vibrant corals, strong currents and exciting pelagic encounters.
SS Thistlegorm
One of the most famous wrecks in the Red Sea, this 129-metre British freighter was sunk in 1941. Resting on a sandy seabed at a maximum depth of 32 metres, it now forms a thriving artificial reef, attracting abundant marine life and large schools of fish.
Abu Nuhas – “Ships’ Graveyard”
Located near the busy Gulf of Suez shipping lanes, Abu Nuhas is home to several historic wrecks lying at the base of a steep coral-covered reef. The southern side offers a sheltered anchorage and nearby reefs known as Yellow Fish Reef.
Ras Mohammed National Park
A world-class dive destination at the southern tip of Sinai. Dramatic walls, vibrant coral gardens and scattered wreck remains—including the famous Yolanda cargo—make this a prime location for strong currents, rich reef life and possible pelagic encounters.
Tiran Reefs
The Strait of Tiran features four iconic reefs known for walls, strong currents and exceptional marine life:
•Jackson Reef – Gorgonian fan forests, wall diving and the remains of a freighter on the northern edge.
•Woodhouse Reef – Long drift dives with coral walls, canyons and frequent sightings of reef sharks and eagle rays.
•Thomas Reef – Vertical walls and a deep plateau where sleeping sharks are often found.
•Gordon Reef – Shallow plateaus, drop-offs, eel gardens and large schools of grouper, plus the wreck of the Lovilla.
Laguna Reef
Home to the exposed wrecks Kormoran and Million Hope, accessible only in favourable weather conditions.
