Lost the fly battle
... br> We did some shore diving a couple of days ago and it is amazing how great the diving is right from shore here. We descended and almost immediatley saw a 2-3' crocodile fish. It took us 4 days to find a crocodile fish on the liveaboard. There seems to be a little more colour in the coral here although it is mostly hard coral and few soft corals. We have yet to see a turtle and really nothing big but yesterday I ...
Transport and development around Dahab
... was right in the centre of town so we got plenty of experience of the stretch of road joining the two. The dive centre organised our transport and we just took whatever they provided. To Tony's relief, this was not camels.

In the evening, we check out the long corniche with its twinkling shop lights. Lots of touts trying to convince us that their restaurant or souvenir store is the ...
Red Sea Snorkelling
... under the water level sucking on coral. Less than a few feet from the shore line this coral reef dropped away to form a 110m sheer drop in the shape of a hole. Like someone had apple cored the coral reef. It was incredible because it was so close to the shore. There are millions of fish all swimming in schools of the same coloured fish, kinda racist really. Most were little fish darting in and out of the varied coral but never straying too far from ...
