The Giannis D is one of five wrecks on the north side of Sha'ab Abu Nuhas reef about halfway between Hurghada and Ras Mohammed. The reef is at the edge of the main shipping lane through the Suez Canal and is exposed to the prevailing northern winds. The Giannis D is the westernmost of the wrecks. She was a 100m (326') Greek cargo freighter sunk in April 1983. The mostly-intact bow rests at 33' and the stern at 80'. The mid-ship in between has mostly collapsed.
