Boat-access horseshoe reef east of Safaga Island with coral gardens, caves, and current-driven drift options.
About Middle Reef Safaga
Middle Reef Safaga is a boat-access horseshoe reef east of Safaga Island that works as a flexible Red Sea boat dive. The reef gives you coral gardens, a drop-off, and a cave-filled southern side, so the character changes depending on which edge you choose and how the current is running. On a good morning it can feel like an easy scenic run with a lot of fish, while the more advanced routes reward divers who are comfortable with current, cave passages, and a bigger reef profile.
