Red Sea 2008

Sharm el Sheik with SQSAC

A club trip over to Sharm on a shoestring! We dived with Camel Divers and had 10 dives over a week including a long day trip up to Cairo. My first taste of proper warm water and coral! Some really nice scenic dives, along with the comfort of being shore-based. Although we were restricted to day-boat distances and diving with the crowds (I counted over 50 divers on one reef!), it was really good diving with the club and we had lots of laughs over the week. Especially introducing underwater photographers to dive guides.....! Next!

I've been going to Tenerife since I was a wee boy and it holds a special place in my heart. I had my first warm water dives here as a bright eyed bushy tailed 16 year old! With my ABLJ and tables this provided much amusement to all! The diving here is really good, lots of fish life, turtles, moray eels, wrecks, rays! It begs for a deep expedition and is definitely one on the list for the future. I've had 5 or 6 holidays here where i've dived and many more snorkelling. 2008 was the first year with the camera and although the weather wasn't perfect in March there was still plenty to see!
