Tec Diving in Dahab

The Canyon is divided into 4 sections with numerous entrance and exit points, which makes the dive site really fun. For example, in addition of the main entrance (20m), you can use the deeper exits at 45m or 51m depending your qualification.

The bottom topography of the canyon is very interesting and you need to do a few dives here to cover the whole area.

The legendary Blue Hole Arch is a 27 meter journey through an underwater tunnel at 55 meters depth. It is visually almost bottomless and an amazing experience with awesome light effects. This truly is a once in a lifetime, must do, dive for any tec enthusiast.

You must be qualified TDI Extended Range or GUE Tech 2, as this is a long decompression dive with several different gases.

The famous Blue Hole in Dahab, is a submarine sinkhole, with a bottom at around 94 meters of depth. It is literally right off the coast, with a distance of 10 meters from your beach chair.

You have to be an TDI Advanced Trimix or a GUE Tech 2/3 qualified diver to do this dive.

Neptune Cave can be found at around 75 meters below the canyon dive site so you have to be an TDI Advanced Trimix or GUE Tech 2 qualified diver.

The cave itself goes in around 30 meters. It’s a very wide cave, which starts to get narrower. It goes in a straight line so it’s nice and easy to navigate.

From a drop off located 30-40 meters from shore, you see the beginning of an open canyon at 45-55 meters, that runs parallel to the shore. This tec dive has a beautiful topography with plenty of ups and downs.

You should be a TDI Extended Range or a GUE Tech 1 qualified diver to go to this site.
