Somabay offers an unparalleled opportunity for beginners and advanced divers alike to wonder at the beautiful sea life and fantastic sites at its renowned house reef that is accessible via a 420 meter long jetty that stretches over a kilometer. The jetty extends directly from the Dive Center to the reef that is serviced by electric cars that are available for carrying equipment (and divers!) for effortless access to the reef. A fleet of dive boats access the many beautiful dive sites in the Safaga region from the Somabay Marina. The dive sites in this area have the advantage of being considerably less crowded that those found elsewhere in the Red Sea and include coral gardens, walls, drop-offs and wrecks suitable for all levels of experience.
