Thomas Canyon — dive site guide
Thomas Canyon is a reef wall in the Strait of Tiran off Sharm el Sheikh, reached by liveaboard. It is part of Thomas Reef. The canyon starts around 35 m and its arches lie at 42-52 m — technical diving only, not accessible to recreational divers. The deepest documented point is around 59 m — its deeper parts are beyond recreational limits. Published positions disagree, so the map shows an approximate area.
Documented site depths are not a recommended dive depth. Your dive plan stays within your certification limit and takes account of conditions and experience. Read our safety information.
How deep does it go?
Some sources give depths of 90 m — the bottom beyond the reef, not a recreational dive depth.
