TAIF
Why dive here
With 139+ marine species recorded in the area - including humpback whales, octopuses, sea turtles, spinner dolphins and whale sharks - TAIF offers some of Eilat's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 18-29°C, warmest July, August, September.
The TAIF wreck lies in the Eilat shallows, a small vessel that’s broken up over time. It’s a site for a relaxed dive, mostly exploring the scattered pieces of the ship. Expect to find a good number of lionfish tucked into the crevices and schooling fusiliers above the larger sections. Given its depth, it’s a good spot for newer divers or those looking for a longer, easy dive.
