For scuba divers, the Red Sea "North Route" is legendary. It is often cited as the best introduction to diving safaris in Egypt. If you love history, rusting metal, and vibrant coral gardens, this is your playground.
At Mega Adventures, we organize top-tier liveaboard trips covering the very best of the North. Here is why this route remains the undisputed king of Red Sea diving.
Highlights of the North Route:
The Wreck Capital (Abu Nuhas): Known as the “Ships’ Graveyard,” this reef claimed four majestic vessels. You can dive the Giannis D (perfect for penetration), the Carnatic (a 19th-century wine carrier), and more—all in recreational depths.
Ras Mohammed National Park: The jewel of the Sinai. Dives like “Shark & Yolanda Reef” offer walls of coral dropping to infinity, massive schools of fish, and… yes, the famous toilets cargo from the wreck of the Yolanda!
The Straits of Gubal: Famous for the Thistlegorm (the WWII giant) and the Rosalie Moller.
Who is it for?
Level: Suitable for Open Water and Advanced divers.
Vibe: A mix of history and spectacular marine life.
Conclusion The North Route is a bucket-list journey that combines the thrill of exploration with the ease of colorful reef diving. Ready to set sail? Check our [Northern Safari Schedule] and book your cabin.
