The Canyon dive site is on the way to the Blue Hole. Most likely you’re going to dive here as well when you go to the Blue Hole. You will have a short swim through a shallow sandy lagoon. The exit of this lagoon and the following pinnacles are just breathtaking and will blow your mind. From 5-20m you’ll find a beautiful garden of corals and then discover the canyon itself – a split between the reef going down to 54m. Beautiful soft and hard corals as well as the chance to see Octopus en masse, making this dive truly amazing.

The Canyon is a wide crack in the ocean floor where you can descend to 30+m, surrounded by a vibrant coral reef with sandy patches and lots of gold fish, lion fish, sting rays, pufferfish, groupers etc. Best opportunity to spot octopus all year around in Dahab!
