Gassous Bay is a protected shallow bay near Safaga, perfect for beginners and dive training. The calm waters shelter a gentle reef slope with excellent visibility year-round. Small coral patches dot the sandy bottom, hosting juvenile reef fish, pipefish, and various species of nudibranchs. The bay's sheltered position means conditions are nearly always diveable, making it a reliable choice when offshore sites are affected by wind and waves. An excellent night dive location with active nocturnal creatures.
