Seascope, we’ll be honest, isn’t always the first name that springs to mind when you think of Hurghada's heavy hitters. But it’s a site that consistently delivers for those who appreciate the smaller stuff, the details often overlooked. We love dropping down here, letting our eyes adjust to the soft coral formations that catch the light just so. You'll find yourself drifting past walls absolutely carpeted with stony corals, and if you take your time, you'll spot the resident Ocellated Plesiops lurking in the crevices, almost perfectly camouflaged. Our favourite time to dive Seascope is late morning, when the sun penetrates the shallow sections, illuminating the Red Sea Butterflyfish as they flit between the branches. Keep an eye out for the Dusky Wrasse patrolling their territory and those shy Polkadot Cod tucked away in their hidey-holes. This site is a delight for macro photographers and divers who enjoy a relaxed pace, perfect for honing buoyancy and really observing fish behaviour. It’s not about grand pelagics here, it’s about appreciating the intricate dance of the reef.
