A 100m ferry on her starboard side with suitcases, shoes and personal belongings still scattered across the seabed. Sobering rather than beautiful. Include on a consumer map only with careful framing, or leave it off. Sank in minutes on 15 December 1991 after striking Hyndman Reef in a storm while returning pilgrims from Jeddah to Egypt. The official toll was around 470; survivors and researchers have long argued the real number was far higher, possibly over 1,000. Many remain aboard. Anchorage: Safaga; boat dive. Hazards: No site-specific hazards noted, brief normally.
