Halg Salmaan — dive site guide

Also known as sub-site Maksour

Halg Salmaan is a reef at Marsa Alam north, on the Marsa Alam coast in the far south. Sources document depths to 35 m. Published positions disagree, so the map shows an approximate area. We dive it as a day trip with a road transfer from Hurghada.
