South Sinai · 3–15 m
A German-built cargo ship (launched 1963, later Adamastos and Zingara) that ran aground on the northern reef bordering Tiran island in 1984 while carrying phosphate from Aqaba, losing most of its bow on impact. The roughly 80m wreck lies parallel to the North Laguna wall within about 12m of water, with a visible winch, six-cylinder engine and propeller, surrounded by lush table corals said to have flourished on the spilled phosphate nutrients.
South Sinai · 12–30 m
The longest of the four Tiran reefs, almost always dived as a one-way drift along its sloping wall from 12 to 30m. A split midway through the reef can produce strong, turbulent 'washing machine' currents, so the dive is run with surface support following an SMB.
South Sinai · 3–15 m
A shallow reef on the northern side of Tiran island, marked by a cascade of large, pristine table corals down the reef wall. It is the resting place of the Kormoran (later Zingara) wreck, which lies parallel to the North Laguna wall within a 12m depth range, making this a calm-day site suitable for all levels.
South Sinai · 5–30 m
The northernmost of the four Tiran reefs, exposed to the open strait and known for a steep drop-off that plunges to around 800m. Strong currents draw schooling fish and sharks, with hammerheads possible in summer along the northern wall, while the sheltered side offers easier coral diving.
