Wandering Through a Valley of Coral Giants
Korafi is a dive site that truly makes you feel like you are exploring another world. This beautiful site is famous for its massive coral blocks that rise from a sandy slope like a range of underwater mountains. The scale of these formations is awe-inspiring, creating a stunning valley for divers to meander through. It’s a perfect example of the pristine and grandiose reef structures that make Marsa Alam a world-class diving destination.
The dive plan at Korafi is a gentle journey of discovery, usually as a one-way drift. You will descend onto the sandy slope and weave your way between the colossal coral mountains. Each formation is a universe of its own, covered in a dense carpet of hard and soft corals and teeming with life. This is a fantastic site for new divers, including those on their PADI Open Water Diver course, to feel truly immersed in a spectacular coral landscape. The varied terrain also offers a great opportunity to practice buoyancy control, a skill perfected in the PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy specialty.
This dive is a visual feast that makes you feel small in the best way possible. It’s calm, brimming with colorful reef fish, and a paradise for photographers. It’s a relaxing and rewarding experience that perfectly captures the magic of Southern Red Sea diving.
