Overview

Description

Mansi (Thiets) – Nice Wall Dive Site About 80 minutes from the port, Mansi offers spectacular wall and drift diving in deep blue water, ideal for advanced divers. The reef wall starts around 10 m and drops steeply into the blue, covered with pristine hard and soft corals. Strong currents make this a thrilling boat drift dive, so carrying a DSMB is essential. Marine life is abundant—schools of snappers, trevallies, barracuda, and sometimes hammerhead or tiger sharks patrol the depths. Visibility often exceeds 30 m, revealing a vibrant coral garden near the top of the wall, perfect for a colorful safety stop. Mansi is a true Red Sea gem, combining breathtaking scenery, healthy reef life, and the excitement of open-ocean diving.
