About this spot

Black Pearl sits in the Red Sea off Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, and delivers consistent diving opportunities throughout the year. The site benefits from stable coral health with no bleaching stress reported, making it a reliable choice for repeat visits. With 12 documented species observations and 3 community videos available, you'll find solid intel from divers who've been there recently. The site lies outside a marine protected area, so access is straightforward. Expect the typical Red Sea mix of reef fish, pelagics, and coral formations that define this region. Water conditions remain relatively stable year-round, though specific depth, visibility, and temperature data should be confirmed with local operators before your trip. Plan dives with an experienced local guide who knows the current patterns and site layout. The Red Sea's reputation for clear water and abundant marine life holds true here, and the community video record suggests this remains an active, well-documented dive destination.
