Shark Observatory

Shark Observatory is a beautiful dive site located on the Ras Mohammed Wall, about fifty minutes by boat from Sharm El Sheik. The dive begins just past the second observation terrace and descends to a depth of 15 to 20 meters. The wall on the left is rich in Alcyonarians, gullies, shelters, and caves teeming with life. Keep an eye out for jackfish, barracuda, and sharks that may appear from the blue. The wall takes a sharp turn westwards towards a small beach under the observatory, where you can see large gorgonians and a majestic overhang. Along the wall, there is an extremely beautiful cave with a large fissure in its top, creating evocative light effects. You can exit the cave directly onto the reef. During the dive, be cautious of boats and use a surface buoy if necessary. Check the direction of the current and note that the best diving is at low tide. Whale sharks have also been spotted at this location.
