About this spot

White Knight sits off Egypt's coast as an accessible diving destination open throughout the year. The site draws divers interested in observing local marine life, with species data from 12 documented observations available to help plan what you might encounter. Community videos from three divers offer real-world perspective on conditions and what's worth seeing. Because White Knight operates outside a marine protected area, it offers standard Egyptian diving access without additional permit requirements. The site maintains healthy coral with no bleaching stress recorded, supporting the ecosystem divers visit to explore. Local dive operators can guide you through the site's layout and marine life encounters. Bring standard open-water skills and typical Red Sea diving gear. The year-round status means you can plan a trip around your schedule rather than seasonal windows. Check with dive shops in nearby towns for current conditions, visibility updates, and boat availability before booking.
