info:
The Panorama Reef is one of Safaga’s most famed dive sites for the amazing drift dive opportunities it offers and the gorgeous panoramic views from its vertical walls that give it its name. After being dropped off by their boat or live-aboard at the northern tip of the oval shaped reef, divers head southwards along the east or west side of the reef. Before heading for the drift, spend some time at the northern tip of the reef to catch a view of great pelagic species, which come to feed on the current. These include white tips, barracudas, jacks, and occasionally, hammerheads and manta rays.
Another diving plan which doesn’t include a drift is the exploration of the Anemone City, an underwater paradise packed full of huge anemones and charming clownfish.
There are also caves, overhangs, and amazingly dropping steep walls to be explored and the corals are varied and just amazing on all sides of the reef. The area is teeming with a mind-blowing amount of reef fish such as anthias, needlefish, lionfish, and parrotfish.
