Diving Holidays In El Quseir
El Quseir is a remote coastal town on Egypt's Red Sea, around 2 hours from Hurghada or Maria Alam airport, far from the big commercial tourist resorts. It is a fantastic destination for an uncommercial scuba diving holiday with access to some of the best fringing reefs in the whole of the Red Sea. The coral reefs here are among the most vibrant and well-preserved in the region, teeming with a colourful variety of marine life, including reef sharks, turtles, and countless tropical fish species. Scuba Divers can easily access several exceptional dive sites, either directly from the shore or just a short boat ride away. This is also an excellent destination for snorkelling.
Our preferred accommodation in El Quseir is superb. It offers great food and service and is set in a wild, scenic coastal setting. Good-quality hotels are hard to find in Egypt, so we are fortunate to find such an exceptional property with an incredible hose reef directly in front.
We highly recommend combining a scuba diving (or snorkelling) holiday to El Quseir with a visit to some of the ancient Egyptian history sites around Luxor, Aswan, or Cairo. Chat with one of our Egypt Holiday experts to construct a tailor-made tour of Egypt to fit your budget and requirements.
