Dahab, South Sinai, Egypt
The Canyon is a crack in the seabed formed after an earthquake that struck the Gulf of Aqaba. The Fish Bowl, a nearby coral head, was once the exit of the Canyon and, over time, closed up as it was overtaken by corals. A cave holds a dense school of glassfish, and on the walls there are shrimp, moray eels and a resident school of dusky sweepers. In the entrance lagoon you can see goatfish, butterflyfish, dominos and pullers. In Dahab, the best time to dive tends to be from March to June or from September to December, thanks to more comfortable temperatures in and out of the water.
