Shore-access canyon dive with dramatic topography and clear Red Sea water.
The canyon entry and wall profile are best handled with a local guide or operator.
Tower is a shore-access canyon dive in the Sharm El Sheikh local-sites area, where a reef crack opens into a dramatic vertical wall and deep canyon. It combines coral pinnacles, overhead sections, and clear Red Sea water, so the main planning focus is controlled buoyancy, a calm approach, and staying within your depth plan.
Site Conditions
Safety Notes
Includes an overhead cave section and access to very deep water; maintain appropriate training, gas planning, and depth limits.
Access Restrictions
Use a controlled shore entry through the reef crack and treat the canyon as a depth-managed local dive.
