Egypt: Sharm El Sheikh

10.09.2004 - 17.09.2004



We felt it was time to get back in the water again and also to get ready for our next adventure so we decided on a quick trip to
Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt. We stayed on the cliff this time with a nice view out over the Red Sea and travelled by taxi to Nama Bay for our evening meals, Camel bar, and walks. We dived with Camel Dive as they have been good in the past. We had to do our check dive as always, this time at Ras Katy, the is a nice easy dive with lot's to see and is often used used for night dives. Once again we enjoy the warm desert air, warm clear waters and the dramatic desert land scape and decided just to dive this time with no excursion into the desert. We dived with my old advanced teacher, and dived the these site: Jackson reef, Gordon, Ras Nasrani,
2x Ras Mohammad (Yolanda reef and Ras G Hazlami), and The Tower. Here is list of some of the things we saw: A leopard shark, turtles, giant moray eel, Napolean wrasse, lionfish, scorpionfish, a few nudibranch, blue spotted stingray, and giant triggerfish. All too quickly this ends but in Febuary we will off on a new adventure. Happy diving!!
