    Habili Omran, off Marsa Alam, gives you a chance to swim with dolphins. It’s a pinnacle, dropping away into the blue, and while the corals are decent, it’s the large pelagics that make it special. We’ve seen pods of bottlenose and spinner dolphins cruise by here, often just at the edge of visibility, doing their thing. If you’re into bigger animals and don’t mind a blue water drift, it's a good pick. Just remember your surface marker buoy.
