About Turtle reef
A reef dive. It goes down to 25 m. You get in from the shore. It suits Advanced divers and up, as a dive guide states it. The coast faces E: swell from the E reaches it, and wind from the W blows out to sea. No dive centre within 50 km on the map: book a liveaboard or a boat from further off. The sea is about 18°C in February, its coldest month (7 mm wetsuit and hood), and 28°C in August, its warmest (3 mm wetsuit). No town nearby. No bookable town within 60 km: the nearest, Nuweiba, is 230 km away. Nearest airport: CCE (CCE), 71 km. Within 5 km we also list 1 dive site.
