Things to do
Dahab's Blue Hole is a diving site that ranks among the best in the world. Its depth, unusual color, irresistible underwater beauty, and the presence of fish of all types make it necessary for divers and snorkelers to come from far and wide. You can dive into the outer part of the reef or just be there to enjoy the moment; the Blue Hole will assure you of an unforgettable experience in the Red Sea.
The Legend of the Blue Hole
Just north of Dahab, the Blue Hole is a natural underwater sinkhole that goes down more than 100 meters. This place is amazing and mysterious at the same time - the place where the Red Sea shows its secrets in the most enchanting way.
A Diver’s Dream Destination
What the perfectly placed Blue Hole means to the scuba divers is that it’s the one and only adventure of its lifetime. Corals are so generously planted everywhere on the vertical walls and they are alive with fascinating fishes, rays, and even the rarest of the sea turtles one may encounter. The outer reef known as "The Bells" leads one through an exhilarating drop into the Blue Hole which is another place among the world’s most fantastic diving sites.
Perfect for Snorkelers Too
The Blue Hole’s wonders are no less stunning nor less magical for the snorkelers. The shallow reef at the entrance is just a snorkeler’s heaven in visibility and lively marine life. The whole range of colors from the living corals to the fishes and more creates a paradise for the photographers underwater.
Adventure and Safety
The depth of the Blue Hole has made it a place famous with the divers, but one still needs to dive responsibly and only with certified guides. The dive schools surrounding the site in Dahab completely give the proper guidance for those who need any and make the diving activities safe for everybody regardless of the level of skill. For the newcomers, the outer reef and shallow regions can equally be explored while enjoying the view of the less challenging but rather lifeless deep diving.
The Spirit of Dahab
The Blue Hole is not only the diving area but also the absolutely relaxed side of Dahab. After your underwater wanderings, sip on your drink at the cliffside cafés with a view of the Red Sea, watch the sun go down over the mountains with Bedouin locals, or just walk along the Bohemian beach of Dahab. The combination of adventure and tranquility truly makes this place a unique and wonderful experience.
Conclusion
Although the Blue Hole in Dahab is one of the best places for diving, it also serves as a gateway to the magical world of the Red Sea. The place lures with exciting and wild holographic coral walls and calm coastal vibes; it embodies Dahab: adventurous, natural, and simply unforgettably.
