Blind Reef

Description Blind Reef is a stretched reef resting in the open sea. Travel time from El Gouna is around 1 hour 45 minutes. On both sides there are drop offs and with good current conditions you can do wonderful one-way dives. On the southern part of the reef there are two mooring lines. One on the eastern side and one on the western side. The drop off on both sides goes down to a plateau in a depth of around 60 feet (18m). Blind reef is known for its changing currents, which sometimes can be very strong. Therefore, a good dive site briefing is absolutely necessary. At a depth of around 60 feet (18m) you may spot a pink frogfish, turtles, barracuda, stonefish and other interesting marine life. Due to its extraordinary location, you might also encounter reef sharks.
