At Scubadore Hurghada, where our philosophy is etched in the belief of intimate, small-group diving, we find that Small Giftun is a canvas perfectly suited to our art. It’s a place where the vibrant underwater theatre of the Red Sea unfolds in its most spectacular form, and where a personalized dive plan can unlock its most hidden secrets.

This legendary site offers a tale of two dives: a sprawling, vibrant plateau perfect for all divers, and a dramatic, deep wall for those seeking the thrill of a world-class drift dive.
