RE: DIVING IN EGYPT - MARSA ALAM a hidden gem

in #travel9 years ago

I can recommend diving in Marsa Alam but I was not lucky. No dugongs at the time I was there. The reefs are wonderful. Snorkeling or diving both is super.

Sort:  

Aww thats a shame - must of been their day off.... better luck next time : ) The area is absolutely stunning, hoping to get there again soon.

Are you living in Marsa Alam? I have heard that many hotels are shut now.

No I dont live there, but I do live in Egypt and as far as I know its still a thriving holiday spot, especially for the diving crowd. Egypt is not an unsafe country as the western media would have you all believe- come see its great, good weather, friendly people and CHEAP!
