Scuba Diving The Red Sea
Red Sea Diving Holidays are a diving fanatics dream! the array of aquatic wildlife is breath taking with 20% of the fish species specific only to the red sea. the most thought after diving memory is to swim with the rare Sail fish which spans over 1 meter long and is the fastest aquatic species of fish known to man as it can reach speeds of 68mph making the sailfish nimble and agile perfect for out swimming its nippy prey. the Protected reefs around Egypt are Heaving with millions of fish of all species and varieties aswell as other exotic underwater wildlife . The most popular dive areas around Sharm are the “striates of Tiran” which offer you the chance to dive a fish infested ship wreck, the “Ras Mohammed and Yolanda reef”the most southerly dive spot in the red sea, expect to encounter many schools of barracuda, Grouper , and king fish. if you want to put a new edge to your diving experience why not try Shark Diving Undego a shark dive experience with many sharks species such as the hammer head and the black tip.
The waters of the red see get a little colder in the winter months and average at about 22 degrees, a 7 millimetre wet or semi dry suit should be perfect for a dive around that time. Be warned that doing 3 or 4 dives a day in a 3mm or a 4.5 mm dry suit you may start leaving you a little chilly.
there are many Outstanding Scuba Diving Holidays available around the red sea from Siani to Aqaba and Jordan, selecting the ideal scuba resort for you can be quite mind boggling.
I have heard good reviews about the Savoy Hotel in Sharm el Sheik a luxurious resorts which specialises in water sports adventures e.g Snorkelling and Scuba diving trips.
