RED SEA,
EGYPT
Like the ancient treasures found
in Cairo, diving in the Red Sea is
otherworldly. With the water rarely
dropping below 71 degrees Fahrenheit,
it is a kaleidoscope of coral reefs and
tropical fish. Embarking from isolated
starting points like e Brothers
Islands, Daedalus or Rocky is ideal for
those who prefer to explore away from
crowds. Home to over 1,100 species of
fish, you'll be greeted by a numerous
variety of manta rays, dolphins and
sharks, including the whale shark and
the endangered scalloped hammerhead
shark. Divers can also explore famous
shipwrecks that date back to the Second
World War like the SS istlegorm
which was a merchant ship that over
time split open, allowing visitors to
see objects inside such as motorbikes,
weapons and armored cars.
