THE ROUTE: Rocky Island, Zabargad & St. John's Reef

Itinerary Highlights

As the most southerly of Egypt’s Red Sea dive destinations, not many divers make it to St. John’s, Zabargad and Rocky Island. Those who do, often iterate their belief that this is the best diving in the Red Sea. With abundant marine life, uncrowded dive sites and crystal clear visibility, it’s easy to understand why.

St. John’s is a healthy reef system lying 25 miles (40 kilometers) southwest of Rocky Island and just east of Elba National Park. Habili Ali and Habili Gafaar are two reef dives known for their abundant soft corals and black corals as well as their schooling pelagic fish species.

This trip is perfect for underwater photography and videography.  There is a mix of relaxed reef diving, exciting historic wrecks, dramatic walls and exhilarating drift diving.
