Abu Nuhas

Abu Nuhas is the Red Sea's most famous shipwreck graveyard, a triangular reef northwest of Shadwan that has been catching ships running the shipping channel for well over a century. Four classic wrecks lie along its northern side, close enough that a two-dive day can take in more than one. The Giannis D, a Greek-owned cargo ship that went down in 1983, is the signature dive: her stern and engine room sit intact and atmospheric at around 24 metres, while the midships is a photogenic tangle of steel. Nearby lie the Carnatic, an elegant old sailing steamer now grown over with soft coral, the Chrisoula K or "tile wreck", and the Kimon M, the "lentil wreck", their holds still telling the story of their last cargo. Depths run from a shallow 4 to 5 metres at the bows down to around 28 to 30 metres at the sterns, so this is wreck-course and Advanced territory rather than a first dive. Between the hulls the reef itself is alive with glassfish, lionfish, morays and the usual rich Red Sea coral life.

No podemos garantizar el avistamiento de fauna. Los puntos de buceo finales dependen del clima, el estado del mar, el nivel de certificación y el plan de operación diario - nunca prometemos un punto exacto por adelantado, y nadie más debería hacerlo.
