Chrisoula K

The Chrisoula K is a Greek cargo ship that sank in 1981 after striking the reef at Abu Nuhas on Egypt's Red Sea coast, a stretch of reef that has claimed several vessels and is often called the Ships' Graveyard. She was carrying a cargo of floor tiles, much of which can still be seen scattered around the wreck and in the holds. The wreck lies on its side, largely intact, with a bottom of wreck structure and a maximum depth of around 28 metres. It is rated a beginner dive, and is a popular stop from liveaboards working the Abu Nuhas reef, usually paired with the other wrecks nearby.
