Dive briefing
The Military Museum (New) dive site is an artificial underwater exhibition featuring submerged military vehicles and structures that have been transformed into an artificial reef. This site offers divers a unique opportunity to explore historical artifacts while observing marine life that now inhabits the structures. Over time, corals and sea organisms colonize the surfaces, creating a blend of history and natural reef development. Divers can swim around the vehicles and structures, observing how artificial objects become habitats for fish and marine ecosystems. The site provides excellent opportunities for underwater photography and exploration, showcasing the Red Sea’s ability to transform man-made objects into thriving underwater environments. For safety, penetration inside vehicles or structures is not permitted. Divers should maintain proper buoyancy to avoid contact with sharp edges and follow guide instructions. The site is best enjoyed as an exterior exploration of the artificial reef and its marine life. Diving trips to the Military Museum (New) are organized with professional supervision by AquaPro Dive Center, ensuring safe and structured underwater experiences.
