MARSA SHOUNI SORAYA
Egypte
Marsa shouni Soraya is a very narrow bay. Its an hour by boat south of Port Ghalib. It consists of three very different dive sites, that you can easily reach from the shore: Nos Wa Nos, Talata Tabba and El Lesan. Three beautiful reefs, each with their own specific characteristics. Talata Tabba offers a tapestry of soft corals, mullet and blue spotted stingrays. In the other two reefs the landscape is completely different.
Particulars
Nos Wa Nos consists of 3 pinnacles. You see large barracudas and stingrays. At El Lesan you stumble upon a reef tongue and a sandy plateau full of beautiful corals. This is also the turning point of your dive. In the shallow water look for well camouflaged fish such as scorpionfish and crocodile fish.
