Sha'ab El Fanadir is a large reef east of El Gouna. On the east side of the reef lies a popular mooring point at El Fanadir, a fairly typical Red Sea reef dive with a descent to 12 metres which falls away gently to 25 metres before the slope declines to the depths.
Great visibility, a reasonable amount of corals, blue spotted rays, lionfish, stonefish and the rest of the usual suspects along with the chance of whale shark during July to September.
