Late season, still warm
Why dive the Red Sea in October and November?
Late autumn combines warm seas with comfortable conditions above the surface. Visibility can be excellent, the summer crowds have gone and the reefs, wrecks and offshore sites offer the varied diving that makes the Egyptian Red Sea so rewarding.
Excellent visibility
Clear blue water, dramatic walls and bright reef scenery make autumn a superb time for wreck exploration, reef diving and underwater photography.
Classic Red Sea high season
Warm water continues through October, with comfortable air temperatures and exciting wreck, reef and offshore itineraries. Only a handful of October spaces remain, so these are the dates to move on quickly.
Confirmed departures, quieter reefs
The sea is still comfortably warm in November, the air is pleasantly cooler and the dive sites are quieter. Every November date on this page is a confirmed Scuba Travel departure, so you can book with confidence.
Last October spaces and confirmed November departures
Several October departures are already full, but a few whole cabins, male shares and female shares remain, and our November departures are confirmed to run. Check the live October and November availability below.
