Why dive here
Hey Daroma is a reef dive where divers can encounter dolphins, spinner dolphins and whale sharks. Water ranges 23-30°C, warmest July, August, September.
Hey Daroma, just off Sharm el-Sheikh, is one of those sites that quietly delivers. We often find ourselves drifting along a gentle slope here, usually with a good chance of spotting some of the resident Indian Ocean bottlenose dolphins, or if you're really lucky, a majestic whale shark passing through. The reef itself is quite comfortable, a gradual affair where we like to take our time looking for smaller stuff like the Brown Frillfin or the shy Burrowing urchin. It's a relaxed dive, perfect for knocking out a couple of tanks without any major drama, and we’d suggest it for anyone looking for a calm afternoon beneath the waves.
