Geo-Dive: Tailormade Scuba Diving Trips

Diving Holidays in Egypt, Red Sea

The Egyptian Red Sea coast stretches from the Suez Canal to the Sudanese border. Its red mountain ranges, rich in minerals, inspired ancient sailors the name “Mare Rostrum”, or Red Sea. This is where hermits in search of isolation founded the ancient Christian monasteries, sharing this wild region with Bedouin tribes trading camels. Nowadays, the steep slopes and “wadi” of the western desert, home to ibexes and gazelles, are still relatively unexplored. However, the Red Sea itself, dotted with coral reefs, bordered by ancient ports and teeming with underwater life, has an important and rich maritime history dating back to the Pharaohs’ age.

The ascending warm air currents which in the old days made the clippers sail swiftly to the East still bring thousands of migrating birds to the Red Sea coasts, making this a heaven for keen birdwatchers. The ancient ports are now renowned as some of the best diving destinations in the world and sun lovers can relax on white beach sands whilst keen divers enjoy the underwater magnificence of the Red Sea: a living tapestry of vibrating corals and exotic fish.
