Get away from the world in Hamata, a remote resort location in the southern Red Sea. Dive adventures include time at Fury Shoal, a reef system rich in marine life including spectacular pelagic encounters.

A dive adventure in the southern reaches of the Red Sea offers untouched reefs, dolphin encounters and a rich marine life plus the chance to get away from it all.

Spend a week relaxing in resort and exploring both the house reef and more popular sites of Fury Shoal. With very few visitors and kilometres of reef on your doorstep, it’s a busy yet relaxing experience.

Boat dives, snorkelling trips and courses, including freediving can be booked locally.
