Landing in Hurghada + stay in Marsa Shagra--Any must see dive sites along the way?

[nirajpatel13]

Hello,
I have about 4-6 days to spend diving in Egypt, and was planning to stay in Marsa Shagra during this time.

However the more I read, the more dive sites I discover.

From Marsa Shagra, we can go on dives to Elpinstone and other to spot Dophins and the Dugong, amongst an excellent house reef.

But any recs, on other locations I should maybe consider? Spend less time in Marsa Shagra and do one day trip from Hurghada or El Gouna or any locations along the way?

thanks

if you are into reef and marine life, then spend all your time in marsa shagra and nearby sites (elphinestone, abu dabab...etc.)
if you need more wrecks, head to elgouna for diving abunahas wrecks. not sure which operator but I know some go for daily diving there, though it will take you about 2 days in gouna and will lost a day traveling so will diminish your marsa shagra time....
my 2 cents.
