About The Blue Hole

This large and very deep hole is an amazing dive and while novice divers are able to swim at shallow depths it is possible for advanced divers to head down to incredible depths. This scuba dive is located a few kilometers North of Dahab and consists of a large drop off which extends to depths ,surrounding this deep hole is a wonderful reef which is covered in various beautiful coloured corals. The fish life here is amazing too and it makes for one of the most memorable dives possible.One is advised to take at this dive site though as there have been several divers who died due to nitrogen narcosis here.
