Egypt

Al Owina

Al Owina sits near the Red Sea coast in Egypt, primarily serving as a gateway town for nearby dive sites and coastal access along the Red Sea. With a couple of local dive centers operating in the region, most divers come here as a base for day trips to adjacent reefs and walls along the Egyptian Red Sea coast. The area is hot and arid, with clear water typical of the region; expect shallow coastal currents and standard marine life around neighboring reefs, though notable dive sites are more readily found a short boat ride away from El Qoseir.
