About This Dive Spot
Coral Garden is located approximately 20 minutes north of the Swiss Inn Resort. The entry point is through a shallow lagoon, which is also the access to the nearby canyon. Divers typically head south from the entry. The site features a shallow coral garden that descends steeply from a depth of 14 meters to 40 meters. The return route allows divers to ascend back to depths of 10 to 5 meters over a mix of corals and sandy areas. This site is suitable for children and beginner divers. Marine life includes partner gobies associated with pistol shrimps, various species of sole and flounders, puffer fish, octopuses, clown fish, and occasional sightings of squid. In the lagoon, divers may also encounter Red Sea Walkmans intermittently.
