About Ras Ghamila

A Sharm El Sheikh house reef built around a long sandy plateau with table corals, soft corals, and a dense sea-fan edge. The shallow section works well for training, refreshers, and repeat dives, while the drift line toward Enterprise Passage adds a more dynamic option when current and conditions line up. Expect a bright Red Sea garden with rays, scorpionfish, groupers, snappers, and pygmy seahorses tucked into the gorgonians.

Scuba Diving

A long plateau with table corals and a sea-fan edge suits checkouts, refreshers, and drift runs when current is manageable.
