Red Sea Diving Safari (Marsa Shagra)

An eco-village concept north of Marsa Alam built around unlimited house-reef diving: divers take tanks and buddy teams down Marsa Shagra's reef arms on their own schedule, day and night. Zodiac drops extend the range, Elphinstone sits within reach, and the operation has long pushed low-impact practices.

Staying there: A deliberate ladder of comfort from simple tents through huts to air-conditioned chalets, all facing the bay.

Prices: Fair-value packages pairing full board with diving; the freedom-diving format rewards longer stays. Confirm Elphinstone trip conditions and rates directly.
