Eel Garden

Eel Garden is a charming beginner dive site in Dahab named for its large colony of garden eels that sway from the sandy bottom like an underwater meadow. Beyond the eel colony, the reef features a gentle slope with scattered coral formations hosting a variety of reef fish. The sandy expanse also attracts blue-spotted stingrays and flatheads. The site's shallow profile and calm conditions make it perfect for training dives and macro photography, with the mesmerizing garden eel colony providing a unique photographic subject found at few other sites worldwide.
