BLUE HOLE
Egypte
The Blue Hole is a magnificent and spectacular diving location with beautiful coral reef and an abundance of marine life. It's not a dangerous dive site but be careful, because a lot of divers lost their life in the Blue Hole. The Blue Hole lures you into the deep via a 56-meter-deep passage in the form of an arch that leads to open sea. It seems feasible and that is where the danger lies. In reality it's a technical dive that is absolutely not suitable for recreational divers.
Particulars
Prepare your dive at the Blue Hole on the beach. Then enter the water via the small bridge. A dive along the coral reef will lead you to the hole. The Blue Hole has a diameter of 200 meters and an immense depth. Stick to your limitations and enjoy this miracle of nature.
Warnings
The Blue Hole can be dangerous. A dive down to the arch is only suitable for very advanced, technical divers. No single tank dives to the arch!
