About Robinson Club Soma Bay House Reef
The Soma Bay house reef is a relaxed beach-entry reef in Egypt, with a shallow sandy bottom that gradually opens into a coral-studded slope and a deeper edge offshore. It works well for try-dives, skills refreshers, and easy self-paced sessions, and the calmer parts of the reef are also comfortable for snorkelers. On a good day you can stay focused on the reef and fish life instead of fighting the entry or managing current.
