    The Red Sea Diving College house reef in Sharm el-Sheikh is exactly what it sounds like – a convenient, accessible spot for training and easy dives. We’ve spent plenty of surface interval time here, watching new divers perfect their buoyancy. Despite the daily activity, it still pulls in some fun finds. We’ve regularly spotted Halfspotted Hinds tucked into crevices, and you’re pretty much guaranteed to see Blacktail Butterflyfish darting around the corals. Keep an eye out for Cowfish if you’re patient; they’re often grazing among the shallower patches. While it’s not Gotha Shab, it’s an ideal spot for a relaxed afternoon dive, maybe testing out new gear, or for those days when you just want to get wet without a long boat trip.
