After 3 hour sailing to north we arrived to the Fury Shoals area.
Last dive of the day at Sataya reef, which is also know as the Dolphin reef.
We did see dolphins at the surface, but not during dive.
We started from back of the boat, then south-east down the wall to see the overhangs at 26 meters. Then upwards to the coral gardens at 10 to 5 meters. Sun was going down and bigger schools of fishes going around. Finally back to the boat.

After the dive boat started moving north again, nearer to Marsa Alam

Intetn was to have night dive here, but it was cancelled due to current.
We stayed over night at this location.
