South Abu Ramada (also known as Abu Ramada South) is a dive site with huge reefs of hard and soft corals and sea fans sitting on a sandy bottom, and a very old wreck that is very much decayed. Aside from diving, the South Abu Ramada site is famous for being a good snorkeling spot. Photography lovers can also enjoy good conditions for taking photos.

When To Go Diving

There is no distinctive diving or non-diving season in this area, so diving is a year-round activity. For divers who prefer a high water temperature as one of their main criteria, it is better to go in July through September, when the water temperature averages 28C/82F. The coolest water temperature is from December to February (21C/69F).
