Shag Rock

Shag Rock is a beginner-friendly dive site in the Strait of Gubal, Egypt's Red Sea, at a small rocky outcrop breaking the surface. The underwater formation features colorful coral-covered walls dropping to a sandy bottom. The compact site hosts an impressive concentration of marine life for its size, including resident moray eels, lionfish, and cleaning stations. Blue-spotted stingrays rest on the sand while schools of fusiliers circle above. An enjoyable and easy dive that punches above its weight in terms of marine life encounters.
