How to dive Marsa Alam?

Liveaboard trip or Marsa Alam Dive Centers?

Stunning world class dive sites can be reached on day trips from Marsa Alam and will keep you busy for your whole trip! However, if you do want to explore the excellent and more remote dive sites of the Brothers Islands, Daedelus Reef, Geziret Zabargad, Rocky Islands and St. John’s Reef you will need to take a liveaboard trip for a few days. These cruises are reserved for experienced divers. 


 

Best time to dive in Marsa Alam?

It is possible to dive in Marsa Alam all year round. There are different seasons:

• Around April and May, the visibility is sometimes reduced by the plankton bloom but that is what attracts Manta Rays and Whale Sharks!
• Coldest water occurs in January and is about 24°C
• Whale Sharks can be spotted between May and June
• From November to February, the wind can be strong and the sea quite choppy. It can sometimes prevent offshore dives from happening such as at Elphinstone Reef.
• Best scuba diving conditions are during Summer with water temperature of about 30°C!
• Hammerhead Sharks and Manta rays season in Elphinstone Reef runs from May to August
• The famous Oceanic Whitetip Shark season runs from October to December in Elphinstone Reef
