About this experience
The most popular dive site in the area in Cleopatra’s Underwater City which is
full of sphinx statues and Roman columns. This city, which was built by
Alexander the Great in 300BC, collapsed into the sea after an ancient
earthquake. Other ancient sites include Lighthouse and Fort Qaitbey.
Couple of wrecks from the Napoleonic-era Battle of the Nile offer an interesting
diversion for advanced divers.
For beginners, the shallow wreck of a WWII airplane gives a glimpse of the area’s modern history.
