The world under the surface is wonderful in the Red Sea. So full of different and colourful life. There are also many interesting wrecks to dive at, like Thistelgorm. On this picture you can see two Masked Butterfliefishes at Talata, Hurghada. I was diving with Colona Dive Centre in Magawish, about 15 km south of Hurghada. Even though I have heard the opposite I must say that there are many excellent dive spots around Hurghada. Among others Abu Ramada (north side), Aquarium - Shab Abu Ramada (east side), Small Giftun, Fouleya (Sabina), El Desha, Oum Kamar, Camel Reef, Somaya, Abu Haschich etc. In Hurghada I have taken the AOW course and the UW-photo course (the photos on this page are taken during the course). I also went on a two day-diving safari to Thistelgorm, Giannis D and other good diving spots. Colona Dive Centre is a reliable dive centre with good equipment and staff and can highly be recommended. Most dives in Hurghada are boat dives, and lunch is often eaten on the boat between the dives. Leave a Comment Theme: Scuba DivingWebsite: www.colona.com

On the first photo you can see basslets and soft corals at Abu Ramada, the north side, Hurghada. Without the flash light, the red colour of the coral would not be seen at this depth. I have been to Hurghada for scuba diving twice. Two weeks in June - July 2000 and another two weeks in December 2000 - January 2001. I prefer the diving in summertime. The water is warmer, the visibility better and there are more fishes. And there are less divers. But of course the diving is good in the Red Sea all year round. The underwater world is great with so many colours and so much life. Leave a Comment Theme: Scuba Diving

The Red Sea is one of the best dive spots close to Europe for scuba diving and snorkeling. The water is warm, very clear, there is plenty of fish and the corals are still intact.
On our first vacation in El Gouna we went diving with The Dive Tribe, a 5* PADI instructor development centre, that was part of our resort (Mövenpick El Gouna Resort). The staff were very professional, the equipment was of first quality and the monitors are of various nationalities. You can take classes when you're not qualified or just take some dives when you have your degree. Don't forget to take your logbook and a recent health certificate. NOTE: all the dives from El Gouna are boat dives, sometimes it takes 1 hour or more to get to the divesite. But then, the most beautiful spots are beneath you: Poseidon Garden, Dolphin Reef, Manta Point and many, many more.

All the water sports are available here, from snorkeling to windsurf, scuba diving, water ski, parachute ski, water scooters, sailing, yachting... But if you come to Hurghada and don't try snorkeling or scuba diving, you missed a lot! Leave a Comment Theme: Other
