El Bohar Soraya is a beginner-friendly reef near Hamata in Egypt's southern Red Sea, the smaller sibling of El Bohar Kebir. The reef features excellent coral diversity with healthy hard and soft corals in shallow, crystal-clear water. Schools of anthias and chromis create colorful displays above the reef, while larger species like groupers and snappers occupy the reef's lower sections. The site is ideal for relaxed diving and snorkeling, offering a taste of the pristine southern Egyptian reefs away from tourist crowds.
