I will visit the Blue Hole on January or February on my diving trip to Egypt,but it will be only up to 30 meters. Impressions? Any advice?
Its a really simple wall dive. You'll have to walk maybe 100m in full gear around the corner to the bells entry. Then descend down a 30m 3-sided chimney with a small arch at 26m. Out onto the outer wall, swim along that. 20-25min swim later you'll come to the saddle at 7m depth which is the only recreational entry for the hole and where the best coral is. If you've got gas remaining a decent guide will continue south past the saddle before turning to bring you back. After you cross into the hole its a 5-6 min swim on an extended safety stop to the exit. You dont have to walk anywhere on exit unlike entry.
Inside the hole itself is dead, not much coral, not much fishlife and a bit dark. Quite unexciting. Not much coral outside but a decent feeling of space going along the wall.
Usually very little current to worry about and diveable in pretty much all tides and weather.
That's pretty much it. Basically, bog standard wall dive! Canyon which you'll likely do on the same day is a better reef and nicer dive in my view.
Lighthouse Dive Center has nothing to do with technical diving as far as I know.
Correction for that - they are a technical equipped centres (right through to advanced trimix) and can offer guided technical dives for appropriately qualified people.
