Salem Express

Diving the Salem Express is a different kind of Red Sea wreck dive. This isn't a site that screams with coral or vast schools of fish, though you'll spot triggerfish and the occasional barracuda cruising by. Instead, it’s a sombre, reflective experience. The ferry lies on its starboard side, largely intact, and you can still make out the lifeboats, the funnels, and even some personal belongings scattered on the seabed around it. We often find ourselves pausing, looking at the rows of portholes, each one telling a silent story. It’s a dive for those who appreciate the history and the unique atmosphere a modern tragedy brings, rather than just the biology.
