About Ulysses
Ulysses is a Red Sea wreck dive on the Gubal reef edge, with a shallow bow, a deeper stern, and a hull that now carries hard coral, soft coral, and plenty of marine life. The wreck is easy to read when current is calm, but stronger flow can make the exposed side more demanding. It suits wreck divers who like a clear structure and do not mind planning around the day's conditions.
