The Islands is a popular beginner-friendly dive site in Dahab consisting of several coral formations separated by sandy channels, resembling islands from above. The site offers easy shore access and a gentle slope perfect for training dives and relaxed exploration. Each coral island hosts its own community of reef fish, making the site feel like a series of underwater neighborhoods. Pipefish, seahorses, and garden eels can be found in the sandy areas. The Islands is a Dahab classic and a favorite for night dives.
