Can you reach deep water for swimming and snorkeling from the submerged pontoon at Dahab Lagoon?

The submerged pontoon at Dahab Lagoon has benches and bins. At normal water level it is roughly chest-deep on the pontoon, while near the buoys the water is deeper than a 170 cm-tall swimmer.

For a brief duck-dive, swimmers have gone about a couple of metres beneath the pontoon without water getting into their gear. Check the current access setup, as a plastic pontoon may also be used to reach deeper water.

Camps on the way to Dahab Lagoon have fresh water for rinsing dive equipment. If you dive several times in a row, gear may not have time to dry between sessions.
