Places You'll Visit
The Blue Hole is a submarine sinkhole in a fringing reef a few kilometres north of Dahab on Egypt's Sinai coast, plunging past 100 metres deep. Its shallow rim offers accessible recreational diving and snorkeling, while a submerged passage called the Arch, its ceiling around 55 metres down, has drawn technical divers and is notorious for numerous diving fatalities.
The Coloured Canyon is a narrow sandstone gorge near Nuweiba in Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, roughly 800 metres to several kilometres long with walls reaching up to 40 metres. Erosion by water over millions of years exposed banded layers of sandstone rich in iron oxide, producing streaks of red, orange, and gold that give the canyon its name.
