Habili Shalal Liveaboard Dive Site

Habili Shalal is a pinnacle dive in Elba Reef, Egypt, within an area known for expedition-style reefs and isolated pinnacles. 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.

The most productive side of the reef changes with the water movement. Divers should remain close to the guide, control their depth and be prepared for a negative entry or blue-water pickup where the briefing requires it.

A liveaboard is the practical way to combine this site with several dives across Elba Reef. 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 Elba Reef and Abu Fendera Reef. Compare Egypt liveaboards and review the Egypt liveaboard destination guide before choosing an itinerary.

The Habili Shalal dive site is currently visited by one featured dive liveaboard, Red Sea Aggressor V, which has a customer score of 9.3 and prices starting from £91.00.

This boat has 13 cabins, accommodates up to 26 guests, and is 131 ft in length.

To dive this site, the minimum diver certification is Open Water Diver, and you are required to have no minimum number of logged dives.
