The Pharaoh Dive Centre main base is set in the camp but daily operations are handled from the Beach area where a second base and lunch restaurant can be found along with sun loungers, parasols, toilet facilities and a Bedouin tent.

The camps House Reef is Abu Sauatir, one of the regions more popular dive sites due to its easy accessibility with a sand canyon leading out to the sloping sandy bay. The protected area of the bay forms an amphitheatre for marine life to perform their daily ballet, a family of Squid dash around the bay in search of prey, Blue Spotted Rays hide under virtually every overhang, the caverns provide daytime shelter to the nocturnal Squirrel fish and reef fish of every size and colour adorn all the pinnacles.

Night diving is superb at Abu Sauatir and the Pharaoh Dive Camp is ideally located to make the very most of the site.


Daily diving is also offered at other shore diving sites and by both Hard Boat or Zodiak as well as day excursions to Abu Dabab, Elphinstone or the Salem Express.
