About this spot

SS Rosalie Möller is a deep wreck dive located in Egypt, suited for advanced divers with solid technical skills and deep-diving experience. The wreck spans depths from 18m to 50m, making it a multi-level exploration that rewards careful dive planning. Year-round access means you can visit whenever your schedule allows, though conditions may vary seasonally. The site attracts wreck explorers looking for structure penetration and historical context. At these depths, nitrogen narcosis becomes a real factor, so awareness and controlled breathing are essential. The wreck offers multiple entry points and sections to explore, from shallower external structures to deeper holds and compartments. Buoyancy control is critical—this isn't a site for casual divers. Community members have documented the dive on video, providing useful reference material for planning your approach. These videos can help you understand layout, currents, and which sections are most navigable. Proper wreck-diving equipment, including redundant air supplies and navigation tools, is non-negotiable. A local guide familiar with the specific wreck layout is highly recommended for your first visit. Before diving, confirm current conditions with operators based in Egypt, as weather and water conditions can affect access and safety. Check your equipment thoroughly and ensure your deep and wreck certifications are current.
