Unlike the sheltered island reefs, it is exposed to the open sea, so wind and waves decide whether the boat can moor there on a given day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On calm days it is one of the most rewarding dives in the Hurghada area.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Makes_Carless_Reef_Special\"><\/span><b>What Makes Carless Reef Special?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The heart of Carless Reef is a pair of coral towers rising from a plateau. Their tops reach close to the surface, while the plateau around them sits at around 20 metres before dropping into deeper water.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The towers are covered in hard and soft corals and surrounded by anthias, glassfish and snappers. The reef is especially famous for its large moray eels, often seen out in the open rather than hiding in cracks.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Marine_Life_Can_You_See\"><\/span><b>What Marine Life Can You See?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Carless Reef attracts both reef fish and open-water visitors. Typical sightings include giant moray eels, Napoleon wrasse, groupers, schools of barracuda and big shoals of reef fish.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because the reef is in open water, divers are sometimes lucky enough to see larger pelagic species in the blue. As always, please keep your distance and never feed or touch marine life.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_Carless_Reef_Suitable_for_Beginners\"><\/span><b>Is Carless Reef Suitable for Beginners?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Carless Reef is better suited to certified divers with some experience.
