Local boat logistics make the drift straightforward.
Coral Garden Ghalib is a Port Ghalib drift dive north of Imbarak with a colorful coral-garden feel and a short boat ride from the marina. It is usually run as a drift along the reef, so the route keeps moving while staying manageable for a relaxed boat dive. The site is known for fewer divers than some nearby options and for the chance of a surprise encounter on a good day. Expect classic Red Sea coral-garden scenery rather than a fixed, flat profile.
