    Diving Sinai Divers Backpacker is a relaxed shore entry, typical of Dahab. We often find it a pleasant, unhurried spot for a morning dive, particularly if you’re staying nearby. The site has a good mix of corals, with plenty of staghorn and table corals providing cover for gobies and blennies. Keep an eye out for the African eel blenny, a little character, and if you’re lucky, a passing pod of dolphins might swing by. It's a forgiving dive, good for getting back in the swing of things or for a gentle exploration.
