Diving Nuweiba
|
The dive sites in Nuweiba and the Gulf of Aqaba are different to those of Sharm el Sheikh and South Sinai. While in the South, walls and currents animate the divers to drift dive from boats, in the Nuweiba area, we tend to dive from the shore.
|
Our dive sites usually begin from the beach on a sandy slope and progress onto coral gardens, reef walls or barrier reefs.
Many dives feature stunning drop-offs, ravines, chimneys and canyons. |
African Divers Nuweiba
Our Dive Sites
|
As Nuweiba is still a relaxed and small town, we often find ourselves the only divers at a dive site, making for a truly peaceful and undisturbed dive over pristine corals.
Nuweiba is home to a huge variety of fish together with both soft and hard corals. You may not find pelagic fish such as Sharks or Manta Rays here very often, however it is quite usual to see large Barracuda, Jackfish and Snappers hunting, Turtles grazing and Moray Eels swimming between the pinnacles. Nuweiba is especially popular with macro photographers, who choose Nuweiba as the best area to get exciting and varied pictures
The reefs here in Nuweiba, have a large variety of soft and hard corals, offering a home to a number of different shrimps, crabs, nudibranches and in particular acts as a nursery for young fish. The sandy plateaus and areas of Sea Grass are home to both Sea Horses and Sea Moths.

In addition, you might also find the Black Spotted Stingray, usually not found in the southern Red Sea.
Twenty five years ago, Egypt's diving industry wasn't yet developed and divers had a long journey via Israel to finally get to Ras Mumlah. However, over the years it became an insider tip amongst divers worldwide and a couple of hundred came to dive in this untouched and beautiful underwater paradise. Today, Ras Mumlah is part of the Ras Abu Galum National Protectorate, and when it became part of the National Park, camping was restricted. African Divers Nuweiba is proud to now be able to offer this stunning excursion again - exclusively for our customers. |
