Some of our highlighted diving spots
SS Thistlegorm - Ras Mohammed
Egypt
One of the best wreck dives in the world (and probably one of the most famous dive sites), the SS Thistlegorm lies in the northern section of the Red Sea. As a popular day trip and liveaboard stop, it’s easily accessible from Sharm El-Sheikh. The wreck itself was previously a 420-foot (128-meter) British transport ship. Unfortunately, she met her fate in 1941 when she was sunk by a German air attack. Today, she remains a window into history with a visible cargo of trucks, jeeps, motorcycles, tanks, and even a locomotive. For this reason, many divers consider it one of the top 3 dive sites in the world.
Blue Corner - Ngemelis Island
Palaos
Blue Corner is a dive for the ages. It consists of a reef-covered wall that runs along the side of Ngemelis Island in Palau. While the dive is great at any time due to the massive schools of fish, this drift-diving site shows its best face when the currents are strong (think more current, more fish – it’s never been more apt). Divers use reef hooks to carefully attach to the wall and watch a number of pelagic species swim past. Common sights include tuna, sharks, and eagle rays. This is undoubtedly some of the best reef diving in the world, and many Blue Corner alumni claim that they have never seen so many sharks on a single dive.
Tiger Beach - Grand Bahama Island
Bahamas
Known for shark diving, the Bahamas is a wonderland country of fantastic dive sites and home to some of the best diving in the Caribbean. While you can swim with hammerheads, oceanic whitetips, and reef sharks, at Tiger Beach, you’ll find daily encounters with several tiger sharks all at once. While you wait on the sandy bottom, these large sharks circle around the group in an experience that will delight thrill-seekers and underwater photographers alike. There’s also a chance to see nurse, lemon, and Caribbean reef sharks at this famous Bahamas shark dive site.
