Why dive here
With 57+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, humpback whales, octopuses, seahorses and spinner dolphins - PMS 1 offers some of El Gouna's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 21-28°C, warmest July, August, September.
The PMS 1 is a small tug, settled upright in only 11 metres of water. It’s an easy dive, perfect for newer divers or those looking for a relaxed second tank. We often see lionfish tucked into the nooks and crannies, and schooling glassfish fill the wheelhouse. The wreck is largely intact, offering simple penetration opportunities for those keen to explore inside.
