    CharacterReef dive

    Panorama Reef East is one of those Safaga sites that really delivers on pelagic encounters. We’ve had a few incredible experiences here, particularly with the larger, faster marine mammals. Keep your eyes peeled for Long-beaked Dolphins and False Killer Whales; they’re often spotted cruising past the deeper sections. It’s a great spot for experienced divers comfortable with potential currents and who enjoy the thrill of open water encounters more than macro photography. If you’re lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of Indian Ocean bottlenose dolphins, making it a truly memorable dive.
