Canyon of Dahab Liveaboard Dive Site

Canyon of Dahab is a reef-and-cavern dive in Dahab, Egypt, within an area known for shoreline walls, canyons and blue-water topography. The precise entry point and route depend on current, weather and the cruise director’s assessment, so an itinerary reference should not be treated as a guarantee that every departure will dive the site.

Any cavern, canyon or swim-through should only be entered where the guide confirms that the route, light and conditions are suitable. Maintain careful buoyancy, avoid contact with coral and do not enter a restricted overhead environment without the appropriate training and equipment.

A liveaboard is the practical way to combine this site with several dives across Dahab. Carry a surface marker buoy, follow the boat’s current and pickup procedures and use nitrox only when qualified and after analysing the cylinder. Wildlife encounters and visibility vary naturally and cannot be guaranteed.

Other sites in this part of the itinerary include Blue Hole and Ras Abu Galum. Compare Egypt liveaboards and review the Egypt liveaboard destination guide before choosing an itinerary.

The Canyon of Dahab dive site in Egypt is visited by four dive liveaboards. The highest customer-rated liveaboard scores 9.2 out of 10. Prices across these liveaboards start from £97.00.
