Egypt and the Red Sea

Posted byColin MetherellPosted inUncategorized

I took a trip to Egypt and the Red Sea organised by Snorkel Venture (https://snorkelventure.com/) in May 2022. We did some of the usual tourist visits in Cairo than headed south to Marsa Shagra for 3 days snorkelling in the hotel reefs. Then we travelled to Marsa Ghalib Port where we joined the liveaboard boat Emperor Echo and sailed south to St Johns, snorkelling in the reefs of Habili Ali and Habili Garaar. Then we travelled north to the reefs of the Fury Shoals and eventually to Abu Dabab before returning to Marsa Ghalib for our return home. A very enjoyable holiday with great snorkelling.
