Gamul Soraya

Gamul Soraya is about a 30-minute boat ride from Safaga, a good spot for a relaxed dive. The main reef plateaus around 14 meters, though you can drop to about 16 meters on the southern end. We usually find visibility here around 23 meters, which makes for easy viewing. It’s generally a calm dive, without much current, which we appreciate, but it can get windy enough to make the approach tricky if conditions aren’t right. Keep an eye out for scorpionfish and crocodile fish; they’re masters of disguise here, blending right into the coral. We've also spotted barracudas cruising past occasionally. It's a nice, easy dive that works for most skill levels.
