Lighthouse Reef — Dahab Dive Site

Dahab's central house reef — the town's easiest, friendliest dive.

Overview

Right in the heart of Dahab's Mashraba bay, Lighthouse is the town's main training and check-dive site — and a lovely relaxed fun dive in its own right. A gentle sandy slope leads to coral gardens and pinnacles, with easy navigation and something to see at every depth. It's also Dahab's favourite night dive.

Conditions & what to expect

The easiest entry in Dahab, calm shallow water and no current — ideal for check dives, refreshers and first fun dives after certification. Depths from 5 to 20 m suit everyone.

Marine life

Anemonefish, pufferfish, octopus, and after dark, Spanish dancers, lionfish and hunting crustaceans.

Who can dive it

Perfect for newly certified Open Water divers and anyone easing back into diving. Also the standard site for our night dives.
