Woodhouse Reef - West Side is an advanced drift dive along the western wall of Woodhouse Reef in the Strait of Tiran. The western exposure creates different current patterns than the east side, often providing calmer but still dynamic conditions. The wall features extraordinary soft coral growth in vivid colors, rivaling neighboring Thomas Reef. Grey reef sharks and eagle rays patrol the drop-off while the shallow reef top hosts healthy hard coral gardens. Advanced divers appreciate the west side for its balance of impressive corals and reliable pelagic encounters.
