Jackfish Alley Dive Site — Egypt

Jackfish Alley dive site in Egypt

About Jackfish Alley

A narrow channel between coral blocks in Ras Mohammed, famous for enormous schools of bigeye trevally (jackfish) moving in dense formations. The dive begins on a sandy plateau and leads through the channel, where the fish schools block out the sunlight. Moray eels, bluespotted rays and stonefish lurk in the sand.
