Shaab Claudio
Why dive here
Shaab Claudio is a cave dive where divers can encounter dolphins, humpback whales, oceanic whitetip sharks, sea turtles and spinner dolphins. Water ranges 23-31°C, warmest July, August, September.
Shaab Claudio is a good pick for those curious about the Red Sea's cave systems. It's more of an overhead environment than a true cave, with plenty of light filtering down through the cracks and openings above. We like exploring the interconnected chambers, swimming from one to another. Keep an eye out for cowfish tucked into crevices and, if you're lucky, you might even spot the resident dolphins making a pass. It’s a site that works well for divers comfortable in confined spaces but doesn’t require extensive cave training.
