    CharacterDrift dive

    The Robinson Club Soma Bay House Reef in Safaga is a decent enough spot for a relaxed shallow dive. You're looking at a maximum depth of around 8m, which makes it ideal for a Scuba Skills Update or just getting comfortable in the water again. We've seen some scattered coral blocks across a fine sandy bottom, home to various soft and hard corals. Keep an eye out for brownbar snapping shrimp if you're patient, and there's always a chance of spotting an eagle ray or even a turtle cruising by. Visibility averages a solid 22m, making it an easy, unhurried dive right off the beach.

    Safety Notes

    Drift dive - carry a surface marker buoy (SMB) and stay with your group. Brief the current direction before entry.
