About Shabrur Umm Gamar
Shabrur Umm Gamar is a reef and wall dive south of Umm Gamar, with a shallow wall and coral garden on the west side and a deeper patrol-boat wreck on the southeast side. It works as a multi-level Red Sea site where the wall, drop-off, and wreck give experienced divers a fuller route than the shallow reef alone. Boat teams should plan for current, drift timing, and a clean pickup on the exposed side.

Local Intel For Shabrur Umm Gamar
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
The main route is a wall or drop-off dive with a wreck add-on and strong big-fish potential.

Not a freedive-first site because the wall and wreck sit deeper than comfortable breath-hold range.

Snorkeling is limited to the shallower reef fringe and is not the main use case.
