Why dive here
Far Garden is a reef dive where divers can encounter dolphins, spinner dolphins and whale sharks. Water ranges 23-30°C, warmest July, August, September.
Far Garden offers a relaxed drift, often starting a bit north and letting the current carry you gently along the wall. We’ve found the reef top here, around 10 to 15 metres, particularly lovely for its resident Red Sea clown surgeonfish and the occasional yellowtail surgeonfish darting between the corals. Drop a bit deeper, and you might spot a shy rock cod tucked into a crevice or a cowfish meandering past. While it's not the most dramatic dive in Sharm, it’s a solid choice for a second or third dive of the day, especially if you’re looking for a comfortable, unhurried experience with good chances of spotting those smaller, often overlooked species.
