Reef Description

Shoab Quais, translating to “Good Reef,” is a hidden gem in the Safaga region, known for its two small coral towers. These towers are adorned with a stunning array of hard and soft corals, along with beautiful gorgonians that create a mesmerizing underwater landscape. Despite its beauty, Shoab Quais remains relatively unknown, primarily due to its exposed location, making it more challenging to access. The reef is less protected from wind and currents, making it a spot for more experienced divers seeking a thrilling and rewarding dive.

Aquatic Life

The aquatic life at Shoab Quais is as diverse as its coral landscapes. Divers can expect encounters with clownfish, barracudas, blue tangs, lionfish, and turtles. The site also offers the occasional sighting of tuna, adding to the excitement of diving here. Although it is a challenging dive spot, the rich marine life and vibrant coral formations make Shoab Quais a dive site worth exploring for those up for the challenge.
