Scuba Diving in Shaab Samadai

Shaab Samadai, also known as Dolphin House, is a protected area by the Egyptian environment authorities. As a national park, very restrictive rules are in place, which divide the dive site into three different areas: the exclusive Dolphin Zone A, the B Zone only for Snorkeling with mandatory floating vest and C Area for boating and for scuba diving. The crescent formation of the reef and shallow water has, over time, attracted bottlenose dolphins that use it as a rest location.
