Reef Oasis Dive Club - Reef Beach

Far Garden dive site is the northern headland to the Middle Garden site. It can be dived as either a mooring, semi-drift or drift dive although the current is normally very light. The topography is mainly a sloping wall but at the beginning of the dive there are quite a few large coral pinnacles with some Gorgonian Fan corals. Don’t forget to look out into the blue on this dive, as Far Garden is one of the Sharm el Sheikh local sites which Manta Rays like to frequent.

Middle Garden is a large sheltered bay. The site is very protected from the weather making it an ideal site for the first holiday dive or for Discover SCUBA diving dives. The fringing reef drops down between 2-3 meters to a large sandy area. This gently sloping sand area is dotted with small coral heads and is a great space to spot bottom-dwellers like the blue spotted sting ray. The main reef runs the length of the bay and gently slopes down into the blue, it is cut by several sandy ‘roads’ which make navigation easy. Middle Garden is an ideal site to have a relaxing dive over the reef with a chance to see if anything is cruising by in the blue. Once in a while Sharm el Sheikh local sites like Middle Garden can surprise you with a sighting of huge turtles, whale sharks or mantas.

The Fiddle Garden is found right next to the Far Garden dive site. It is a reef wall with a drop-off and suitable for every diver level. The sandy plateau is covered with pinnacles and coral blocks.

Out of all of the Sharm el Sheikh local sites Near Garden is the closest to our jetty – making it ideal for divers to join our dive boat at midday for the afternoon dive. It is located on the southern headland of Middle Garden or the northern headland of Naama Bay. This dive can be done as a mooring dive but is more popular with divers as a semi –drift dive. Divers normally enter where there are several pinnacles making a ridge down the sharp coral slope. You can then head north along the steep reef until it starts to flatten out as you enter Middle Garden. If the dive is planned as a semi-drift you can spend the last minutes of the dive exploring the fringing reef which has lots of small inlets.

Turtle Bay is an easy dive site suitable for every level of diver and also good for snorkeling. Sandy slopes, drop-offs, small pinnacles, and coral blocks will be found here.

Fancy a lazy day or perhaps it has been a little while since your last dive? Our gorgeous house reef offers something for every diver from beginner to pro. The gentle shore dive allows you to walk in to the water and prepare your self at your own speed, then when you are ready to sink beneath the sparkling turquoise water, you will be able to explore many coral pinnacles at a very leisurely pace with little to no current. We have regular sightings of green turtles and eagle rays in this beautiful spot, along with the usual Red Sea suspects including crocodile fish, lion fish, blue spotted stingray and octopus to name a few.
