White Rock in Saint Johns, Egypt, is a reef and wall dive site accessible only by boat. The wall descends from 15 metres to a maximum depth of 30 metres, with an average depth of 22 metres. Divers should be prepared for mild currents that can strengthen quickly, requiring careful monitoring of conditions and buoyancy throughout the 50-minute dive. Visibility typically ranges between 10 and 30 metres. Due to the rapid drop-off and potential for shifting currents, this site is suited for intermediate divers. Always brief your skipper on your planned depth profile before entering the water and remain close to the reef structure.
