Dive Site Descriptions

  • Abington - Marked by a lighthouse, this reef only just breaks the surface and is rectangular in shape and currents are common. If you like turtles then Abington reef is the place where you are likely to see these inquisitive creatures. They are truly delightful and seem to always enjoy having their photographs taken! The reef is also well known for schooling hammerhead sharks
  • Angarosh - Angarosh means 'Mother of Sharks' and is appropriately named because of the number of sharks that are found in this area. 
  • Angarosh has two plateaus, the shallower plateau at 25m (80ft) and the other plateau at a depth of 45m (150ft). 
  • Angarosh is a superb dive site to encounter sharks as they swim effortlessly all around the site. There are also schooling barracuda, other reef fish but the site is most famous for its Manta Rays.
  • Merlo - South of Angarosh there’s Merlo reef. The depth on the east plateau varies from 23m (75ft) to 45m (150ft). For the morning dives you will be on the lookout for sharks, then swim around the Habilli, where you will encounter a plethora of coral fish among the beautiful soft coral formations. During the afternoon, divers will swim along the southwest wall, along amazing canyons and overhangs. Notable during the month of March is the mating season for groupers.
  • Qita El Banaa - This site is an underwater mountain in the middle of the ocean and attracts big sea creatures such as Manta Rays and a variety of sharks. We start in the big blue to look out for the pelagics such as Hammerhead sharks and Manta Rays and you will finish the dive along the shallower part along the reef.
  • The hard and soft corals with their amazing fish life make the drop-off an underwater paradise for all divers, especially photographers.
  • Sha'ab Rumi - Some 25 miles North East of Port Sudan this reef has a plateau at 9m (30ft) and continues with a steep drop-off. 
  • This is where Jacques Cousteau and his team mounted an underwater base in order to study the effects of long-term underwater stays of a diver. The underwater expedition was named 'Pre-Continent II' and was set up in 1963. 
  • The incredible outcome of this expedition was that once fully saturated, the diver could conceivably stay down forever, given enough air to breathe, and most astonishing was that this experiment took place in 1963, by scientists who obviously had knowledge well beyond their years. 
  • The remains of his expedition are still at the site and it is well worth a dive to take a look at the equipment which was left behind. South of Sha'ab Rumi is a plateau at a depth of 23m (75ft). Here you will find numerous sharks, barracudas, jackfish, bump head parrotfish, and almost anything else that you can imagine! Sha'ab Rumi is a 'must' for all visitors! 
  • Sanganeb Atol - Sanganeb is located about one and a half-hour north of the "Umbria". This reef rises from a depth of 800m (2600ft) all the way to the surface. 
  • The Sanganeb coral reef is truly a beautiful place to dive or snorkel. The reef itself has one of the richest soft and hard coral displays in the Red Sea. The British built a lighthouse on the reef and nearby there are caves and gullies for the avid diver to visit. There are two Sudanese men who take turns living in the lighthouse (they rotate every 4/5 weeks) and love to welcome visitors. You can climb to the top of the lighthouse and look out over the coral reef in crystal clear water. 
  • Every person who has climbed the lighthouse comes back with a different number of stairs that they have climbed - they never seem to agree on the number of stairs. Due to the fact that the reef extends all the way up to the surface, Sanganeb is great for snorkeling. 
  • The South plateau along Sanganeb is a fabulous dive site with soft and hard corals, schooling Jacks, Barracuda, Tuna and Snappers are abundant. Grey reef sharks cruise close by with an occasional White Tip reef shark swimming past. Occasional Hammerheads, Silky, and Oceanic White Tips have been encountered here as well as Manta rays. 
  • The North plateau is an outstanding dive. This is a deeper dive with the deepest part at 45m (150ft). Here schooling Hammerheads are common. It is also normal to see Grey Reef Sharks, Silvertips, and White tips. The yacht anchors inside the lagoon where there often is a huge pod of dolphins and we usually get in the water to snorkel with them.

  • The South plateau along Sanganeb is a fabulous dive site with soft and hard corals, schooling Jacks, Barracuda, Tuna and Snappers are abundant. Grey reef sharks cruise close by with an occasional White Tip reef shark swimming past. Occasional Hammerheads, Silky, and Oceanic White Tips have been encountered here as well as Manta rays. 
  • The North plateau is an outstanding dive. This is a deeper dive with the deepest part at 45m (150ft). Here schooling Hammerheads are common. It is also normal to see Grey Reef Sharks, Silvertips, and White tips. The yacht anchors inside the lagoon where there often is a huge pod of dolphins and we usually get in the water to snorkel with them.
  • Shaab Ambar - Shaab Ambar is a massive reef system stretching over 5 nautical miles with a lagoon in the center which is perfect for a night dive at the overnight mooring. At the south-east end lies a very nice plateau with a vast sandy area and when there is a mild current the massive amount of unicorn surgeonfish are mindless of divers, great barracudas are seen hunting, and the giant dog tooth tunas come herding their youngsters, not to forget the weary garden eels and the small white tip reef sharks. At the drop-off, when the current permits, divers will often be rewarded with the superstars of the ocean, schooling scalloped hammerheads. 
  • Sha'ab Jumna - Jumna is a reef about 27 nautical miles south of Port Sudan and is marked with a beacon. A lovely reef with the usual, colorful schooling fish and a very impressive topography with crevices and canyons all along the wall and one of the biggest schools of scalloped hammerheads.
  • Tamarishira - This magnificent site is very rich and full of schooling fish such as tuna, barracuda, sweetlips, mackerel, and much other tropical fish. Off and on eagle rays and turtles can be found. The night dives at this site are wonderful, especially during a full moon.
  • Habili Dahret Abid - North of Dahret Abide island, there is a reef not named on any map and it is one of the best dive sites in Sudan. Apart from schooling hammerhead sharks, divers will encounter schools of jackfish, tuna fish, and barracudas. The great wall is covered with black coral and a common sight is white tip reef sharks sleeping inside. 
  • Dahrt Abid - The most southern dive site is on an island located 7 nautical miles from the Sudanese border with Eritrea. The morning dive takes place on the eastern side where there is a small plateau that extends into the big blue. The first part of the dive is actually in the big blue where divers usually see a huge school of hammerhead sharks as well as numerous grey reef sharks.
  • Back at the plateau, under large table corals, divers will see huge sweet lips next to sleeping white tip sharks and many other different types of snappers. Further south-east, along the rich and colorful wall, there is a ton of wonderful reef fish. This site is certainly one of the most remarkable dive sites in Sudan.
  •  The afternoon dive takes place on the west side of the island, where millions of surgeonfishes slowly swimming along with schools of jacks, tuna, and barracudas. The safety stop almost always will be accompanied by a few young silky sharks 
  • Habili Mayam - At a depth of 28m (90ft), Hammerheads are usually seen passing by along this site. It is also quite common to encounter gray reef sharks, silky sharks, manta rays, and dolphins. The drift along this wall is exceptional.
  • Qab Mayam - At this diver's paradise, the reef extends into the blue where a massive school of curios hammerhead sharks comes along as soon as divers appear. Other notable sightings include silky sharks, grey reef sharks, and other large pelagics. The reef and wall itself are covered with soft corals, hard corals, and sponges. This plateau is teeming with life such as sweet lips, white tip reef sharks, jacks, tuna, twin-spot snappers, rainbow runners, and even lobsters during the day.
  • Qab Abu Isa - At 20m (65ft) of depth, Qab Abu Isa offers sightings of schooling hammerhead sharks and on top of the reef there are millions of surgeonfish, with tuna cruising by as well as schools of jacks. The plateau and the reef are covered with whip coral, soft and hard coral, and are a paradise for underwater photographers, especially Hagerda-nudibranch lovers.
  • Dahret Darraka - This is another small island between Dahret Abid and Dahret Ghab. We called it Turtle Island due to the clear tracks of turtles crawling up the sandy beach to lay their eggs. There is a plateau at the south-eastern wall which is at a depth of 25m (80ft) and then slopes into the abyss. The topography of the plateau is the most interesting and amazing part of this dive. Just at the drop-off, it looks like a half-moon and at the eastern point of the plateau, there is a great crevice that looks like a huge chimney reaching up almost to the surface.
  • Habili Dahret Ghab - A large round-shaped reef. At the southern end, the reef gently descends to a depth of 30m (100ft) where there is a small sandy area that continues sloping upwards along the reef to 20m (65ft). The plateau is overgrown with colorful corals which contain a variety of reef fish. Just next to the reef, a giant barracuda is usually seen swimming peacefully and just under the dive deck, young silky sharks are commonly seen. The walls along the east and west side are exceptional, covered in hard and colorful soft corals, with overhangs along the wall and countless reef fish on top of the reef.
  • This dive site offers an awesome night dive with silky sharks and huge lobsters.   
  • Habili Loka - Pandoras Reef. This large patch of reef stretches more than 2 miles. The dive begins where the surgeonfish and jackfish are and where the hammerhead sharks pass by. There are also big tuna and huge barracudas all along the wall. The steep wall is covered with beautiful soft and hard coral and teaming with tropical fish. 
  • Habili Dibesl - At Habili Dibesl, the dive starts after having checked the strength and direction of the current. After having spent some time in the big blue, drifting with the current, usually encountering hammerhead sharks, silky sharks, and gray reef sharks, divers will swim towards the incredible and vibrant reef. Here divers will see lots of hard and soft coral formations covering the area. Divers then swim slowly along that beautiful steep wall teaming with schools of jackfish, tuna fish, and barracudas.
  • Diesel Island - Along this island, the dives usually start at the northern point, all depending on the current. If the current allows, divers will spend the first part of the dive in the big blue waiting for hammerheads to pass by. Once back at the reef, divers will encounter the usual barracudas, tuna fish, and almost all members of the various snapper families. It is a wonderful reef with tons of soft corals.
