Wreck Diving around Sharm El Sheikh
Sharm El Sheikh
The famous Thistlegorm.
SS Thistlegorm sank in the WWII and it is surely one of the best wreck dives in the Red Sea or elsewhere. First is an exploration dive where you see the outside of the wreck. The second dive leads you inside to see the remaining cargo such as jeeps, motorbikes and locomotive trains.
It is unforgettable!
Please note that free Sinai stamp which you get upon arrival at the airport is not enough for this trip. If this is on your bucket list, please purchase the visa upon arrival at the airport. The cost of the visa will be $25.
The SS Thistlegorm is an early bird dive as the trip takes 3-4 hours. There is a surcharge for this trip which includes food and drinks, please check the pricelist.
The Dunraven is located at Beacon Rock in the Ras Mohamed National Park. It is a wooden Steamship which sank 1873. You can dive through the wreck which offers amazing marine life and is covered by corals. She is often frequented by schools of Dolphins.
The trip has a surcharge. Please check the pricelist for the actual prices.
If the sea is calm and you are in Tiran you may have the opportunity to dive the Million Hope, she was a large bulk carrier which sunk in 1996. She was carrying 26,000 ton cargo of Potash and Phosphates sailing from Aqaba when she hit the reef opposite the Straits of Tiran on the main land.
With 174.6m length x 24.8m with a draught of 10m it is a huge wreck. Loads to discover. The shallow depth between 0 and 22 mtr allows enough time to do so!
