Far Beyond the Mainstream: Free Diving Dahab's Canyon
Located in the middle between the straits of Tiran in the south and the borders of Israel, Egypt and Jordan in the north of the eastern coastline of the Sinai Peninsula at 28°33.294N , 34°31.257E the reef along the coast of the Gulf of Aqaba has a large gap and a small entry, the Fish Bowl at 14m that leads into the Canyon down to a sandy platform at 30m and an exit at 18m just vertically above.

Amazing, sportive and very individual, this free dive in Dahab's Canyon without any scuba gear, but with a very specialized free diving equipment, spectacular!

The reef starts right on the beach and the Canyon isn't far away. It's an excellent scuba dive site, too, especially early in the morning when the sun comes up, later in the day it's a bit crowded due to its popularity. It's recommended for advanced divers.

Dahab is an entry point to a series of spectacular dive sites. Very experienced technical divers know, that the Canyon has a second exit at 52m and a last one at 75m just before the drop-off into the abyss, well there is also Neptune's Chair a bit further below. And the famous Blue Hole. Check out the Blue Hole Project.

Maldives are famous for their short, but powerful sunsets. Just before the sun sinks in the ocean it's the best time to experience a beautiful colored spectacle. One minute later it's dark. An excellent shot!
