SHA'AB RUHR UMM GAMMAR
Egypte
The Sha'ab Ruhr Umm Gammar Reef is located south of Umm Gammar and consists of two excellent dive sites. If you opt for a drift dive on the eastern side, then you come along a steep wall that reaches to incredible depths. The southern plateau is interesting because of the wreck of an old police boat. Also the drop off that goes into the deep end is particularly impressive. During your dive you are accompanied by reef sharks and large groupers.
Particulars
Parts of the old police boat you will find on the northwest side of the reef. The boat ran into the reef. The rest of the wreck landed on a ledge at a depth of nearly 30 meters.
Warnings
Do not make physical contact with the marine life.
