Red Sea, Egypt

"Egypt and The Red Sea should be on every diver's list. With such a rich combination of ancient Egyptian history and great diving being both accessible and abundant, this is one destination that should not be missed". (Brian Miller about a recent trip to Egypt)
The Red Sea is one of the best dive destinations in the world. Thousands of kilometres of coastline are blessed with extensive reef formations and islands. The underwater scenery is rich with coral-covered walls and beautiful coral gardens. Over 400 varieties of coral and 1500 species of fish, turtle and sharks make the Red Sea their home. Hammerhead, Oceanic White Tip, Grey Reef, Silky, Thresher, White Tip Reef, Silvertip and Whale Sharks are all found in the Red Sea. Shipwrecks such as the SS Thistlegorm, Rosalie Moeller, Numidia, Aida II and the Salem Express to name only a few, make the Red Sea a wreck divers paradise. 
Jacques Cousteau once said; "The Red Sea is a corridor of marvels. The happiest hours of my diving experience have been spent there". That statement is as true today as it was when Jacques Cousteau first explored here in the 1950's and 60's. Many divers still spend many happy hours diving the Egyptian Red Sea, whether it's the Tiran Reefs, the wreck of the Thistlegorm in the north, the Brother Islands in the central Red Sea or the huge reefs of St John's and Elphinstone in the deep south.
One could spend a lifetime diving the Red Sea and never see it all..
An almost landlocked body of water, the Red Sea is accessible from Egypt and is a diver's dream. Two common start-off points are Hurghada and Sharm El Sheikh on the Sinai Peninsula. Combine day trips with a liveaboard trip, dive the walls and reefs of the Ras Mohammed Marine Park, the wrecks of Gubal Strait or the walls of Tiran Islands. The last few years have seen an increased demand for trips to the Southern Red Sea, the start-off point being Marsa Alam or Safaga. Explore exquisite sites such as St. Johns, Elphinstone, Daedalus Reef plus the Brothers Islands shouldn't be missed.

6000 years of history demand some topside activities: Explore Cairo's markets and the nearby pyramids; take a side trip to Luxor and be amazed by the Valley of Kings; take a Nile River Cruise, the possibilities are endless. English speaking Egyptologist guides are provided on all sightseeing tours.
