Pfeiffer Reef is a coral reef site in northern Sudan’s Red Sea, reached via liveaboard.

Overview

This site could not be independently verified. A listing for Pfeiffer Reef exists in one dive site database (divescover.com), confirming the name is used in the industry, but repeated attempts to retrieve that page’s content and to find any second independent source describing its depth, marine life, or specific character were unsuccessful. The detailed narrative previously published here (currents, pelagic species, specific depth profile) could not be traced to any verifiable source and has been removed rather than repeated. This entry is retained with only structural data (location, coordinates) until a genuine source is found.
