Queen Wall is Marsa Alam's coral wall drift dive.
Queen Wall in Marsa Alam is a shore-start wall and drift dive that begins at the Queen Hotel jetty and follows a coral wall studded with pinnacles. It is a reef dive that stays interesting in the middle band, where coral gardens and fish life build along the wall rather than in a single obvious headline feature. The site suits divers who like an easy start, a moving-water profile, and a bright coral wall rather than a deep offshore challenge. On calmer days it feels relaxed and colorful; when the drift picks up, it becomes more active and rewards tidy trim and a plan for where the current will carry you.
