Rosalie Moller - El Gouna

The Rosalie Moller is a solid choice for a wreck dive out of El Gouna. She sits upright, pretty much intact, resting at 36 metres, so it’s one for intermediate divers comfortable with that depth. You can spend a good chunk of your bottom time exploring the holds, which are often swarming with glassfish, and peering into the engine room. Keep an eye out for lionfish tucked into corners and the occasional barracuda patrolling the mast. It’s a proper piece of history down there, a cargo ship sunk during WWII, and the coral growth isn't as profuse as some reef dives, but it adds a lovely texture to the metalwork.
