Why dive here
With 57+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, humpback whales, octopuses, seahorses and spinner dolphins - Dolphin House offers some of El Gouna's richest diving. Water ranges 21-28°C, warmest July, August, September.
Dolphin House is a shallow, sheltered reef that’s an easy run from El Gouna, ideal for newer divers or those getting back in the water. We’ve drifted here often, enjoying the soft corals and whip corals at around 10 to 12 metres. While resident dolphins aren't guaranteed, we've had encounters in the area, usually in the mornings. Expect a relaxed dive with plenty of small reef fish.
