Abu Ramada - Ost
Why dive here
With 42+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, humpback whales, seahorses, spinner dolphins and whale sharks - Abu Ramada - Ost offers some of Hurghada's richest reef diving. Water ranges 22-29°C, warmest July, August, September.
Abu Ramada East, often called the Aquarium, is a gentle drift dive that’s a solid choice for a second or third dive of the day. We’ve found the currents here tend to be mild, making it a good spot for newer divers to practice their buoyancy control while keeping an eye out for some interesting critters. The reef slopes down, letting you pick your depth, and we’ve consistently seen plenty of Klunzinger’s wrasse darting about. Keep an eye on the sand patches for the occasional cowfish or a well-camouflaged sandfish, and sometimes even a small-eyed squirrelfish peeking out from under ledges. It's a reliable dive for a relaxed afternoon.
