Shallow Dahab shore dive with three sandy lagoons, tide-sensitive transitions, and a coral garden after the third pool.
About Three Pools
Three Pools is a shore-access Dahab dive site defined by three natural sandy lagoons that you pass through shortly after entry. The shallow pools sit in a coral-rimmed reef plate and make the site a favorite for buoyancy practice, snorkeling, and relaxed exploration. After the third pool, the route opens into a coral garden with colorful reef fish and corals, so the dive shifts from shallow lagoons to a more scenic reef finish.
