Site details

Black Pearl is a beach-club and restaurant venue on the Hadaba (south Sharm) coast that fronts a fringing house reef used for snorkeling and shore diving. The reef table gives way to a wall and slope typical of the Hadaba coastline, with colourful reef fish and soft and hard corals. It functions more as a shore-access reef and beach facility than a dedicated boat dive site.
