Royal Evolution

With warm, crystal clear waters and amazing sights to be seen including caves, coral reefs and beautiful tropical fish, there is a whole underwater world just waiting to be explored when we go to St. John

Actually, St John’s has fabulous diving. Stunning coral plus large shoals of fish, turtles, dolphins and sharks. It’s a collection of small reefs in the far south of Egypt covering around 290 km2.

The highlights of diving the Red Sea’s Deep South include some terrific coral walls and gardens, including a mix of both soft and hard coral formations, plenty of tunnels and caves, and great visibility. Probably the best in the Red Sea

Reef & fish life is still untouched and the deep walls and currents at some of the dive sites attract grey reef, hammerhead, Oceanic & sometimes thresher sharks, as well as other predator fish such as barracuda and jacks.

Zu den Höhepunkten gehören:

Carnatic

Dieses P&O-Passagier- und Postschiff ist von Geheimnissen umhüllt. Es wurde 1869 versenkt, und nur ein Bruchteil des Goldes, das es an Bord hatte, konnte geborgen werden. Die Qualität des Lichts und der Reichtum an Schwamm- und Tischkorallen machen sie zu einem beliebten Objekt für Unterwasserfotografen.

Thistlegorm

Dieses Wrack ist bei Tauchern aus aller Welt sehr beliebt, auch wenn einige sie als Kriegsgrab betrachten. Die Thistlegorm war ein Frachtschiff der Armee des Zweiten Weltkriegs, das zur Versorgung der britischen 8. Sie war bis zum Rand mit Maschinen und Munition beladen, als ein deutscher Bomber sie am 6. Oktober 1941 versenkte. 

Abu Nuhas

Aus dem Arabischen übersetzt bedeutet Nuhas Messing - ein Name, der dem Riff von den örtlichen Fischern gegeben wurde, nachdem es ein Schiff mit einer Ladung Messing gefangen hatte.

Elphinstone

As you slowly ascend to your stops, observe the large silvertips along the plateau. The northern plateau is the perfect place to see hammerheads usually in only 25m of water! As you drift back along the wall, you are bound to see a turtle, or another large silvertip speeding after its prey, while the more timid creatures take refuge in the crevices of the reef itself.

Little Brother
This island offers some spectacular coral diving, with the most colourful soft corals and delicate gorgonian forests at around 30m. As you turn your head away from the drop-off, you are bound to see sharks gliding into the deep. The brothers attract several species of sharks, including hammer-heads, silver tips, oceanic whitetips and even tiger sharks. 

Big Brother
A huge Freighter lies on the northern plateaux of Big Brother with the stern wedged in to the island at a depth of 80m. This wreck is adorned with spectacular soft coral dancing in strong currents. This dive is only for the experienced. The Aida II is a supply ship that hit the reef circa 1957. The stern section only remains and lies between 30 to 70 m. its structure is heavily colonised with soft and hard coral encrustation. This makes an interesting dive not only for the wreck but also the large pelagic fish and schools of barracuda that glide around it.
