Do you want to go diving? In the Red Sea, what Xiaobian wants to introduce to you today is the diving strategy about the Red Sea. Friends who need it can learn about it. The diving routes are different and the scenery they see is very different. Let's take a look at it first. What can you see when diving in the Red Sea?
The big things you can see when diving in the Red Sea include dolphins, mantaray, pelagic whitetip sharks, long-tailed sharks, hammerhead sharks, various reef sharks, grey reef sharks, large Napoleon, etc.
If you look at the big things because of seasons and luck, what remains unchanged in the Red Sea is the most primitive, healthy and spectacular coral world on the seabed, sunken ships in various periods and histories, and blue water. Ship Accommodation Wharf
The Red Sea boat accommodation in Egypt is geographically centered on Hrga, an African land and a city on the west bank of the Red Sea.
then the ship accommodation docks are Hrga (HRG) and Port
Ghalib (PG), 2 kilometers south of HRG, and HRG is 3 hours' drive from PG. Don't worry too much even if you board the ship at PG Pier. As long as you arrive at HRG, the general shipping company will send a car to take you to the pier.
by the way, PG has an international airport (called MarsaAlam) and many European countries have direct flights, so it is quite convenient for European guests to come to the ship and stay, and all the money can be saved in one week.
how to choose the Red Sea Boarding
When choosing the Red Sea Boarding, you must pay attention to some keywords, such as: RASMohammed, Tiran, Thistlegorm, BDE, StJohn, Fury
Shouls, etc. The Red Sea Diving Route
The Red Sea Boat Accommodation can be simply divided into three lines, namely, the northern line, the southern line and the Shennan line.
diving in the northern line of the Red Sea
The northern line of the Red Sea mainly refers to the dive sites in Sinai, and you can go to these dive sites from Sharmel-sheikh.
for boarding in Hrga, start from HRG and return to HRG.
(Reference: 12 elite diving sites in Sinai Peninsula)
Dive in the southern line of the Red Sea
Among many routes in the southern line of the Red Sea, the elite route summarized by predecessors is BDE, which is called simplythebest.
get on the boat from HRG, and PG gets off the boat, or PG gets on the boat and HRG gets off the boat. It is suggested to choose the route from HRG to get on the boat and PG to get off the boat, from north to south, with the wind and waves. There is no night diving on this route, which is said to be due to the large current and too many sharks. At night, there are many pelagic whitetip sharks around the ship to feed.
diving in the deep southern line of the Red Sea
Go south along the Red Sea and dive in the sea near the border of Sudan. There are many routes to choose from, and some can also add some diving spots in the southern line, such as DaedalusReef. The classic line is Fury
Shouls-Rocky-Zabargad-St. Johns, where PG gets on board and PG gets off.
The three lines are different. If you walk on any one line, you will be extremely annoyed and think that if you want to go to the other two lines, you will have to fly twice. How hard it will be.
I went to the northern line and the southern line, and I couldn't wait to book a deep southern line when I got off the boat. What a drug addict! (
Then if we can charter a boat, running through the north and south, and only remove the essence of the essence, then I will call it the best route. Looking forward to the emergence of Chinese cattle. ) detailed explanation of the dive site of the ship and the route price
The following routes will involve the price of some ships, which is just a reference. After consulting the price list published on the website of the ship accommodation company, the actual price of the same route will be different due to the size of the ship, the degree of luxury facilities, the season, the booking of the ship position and your negotiation skills. The price listed is only the price of accommodation, and does not include any ocean park fees, tips and so on.
tips:
the tip consists of two parts, one for the guide and one for the staff, ranging from 3 to 5 euros each. The dive points of the northern line of the Red Sea
will definitely include RASMohammed and Thistlegorm. In addition, some routes will add the dive points of the Tiran Strait to form a loop called Northand
Tiran.
or add more sunken ships and turn them into special sunken ships, called Northandwreck.
the time is 7 days and 7 nights, and the price is about 7 euros. If you can get 4 free, it will be 2% off and 56 euros. According to the current exchange rate, it is really not expensive.
if the Tiran strait is lost, the boat will go south to TheBrothers (that is, B of BDE in the southern line) south of Hrga, which is called Northand
brothers. This route will be slightly more expensive than the traditional northern line because of its detour.
for 7 days and 7 nights, the price is 99 euros, and it will be 79 euros after 2% discount. The southern line of the Red Sea
BDE includes two national parks in the southern part of the Red Sea.
b-brother islands, cliff diving, deep (up to 8 meters), shark point, sunken ship. The possibility of big waves is relatively high. As the name implies, they are two brothers, Bigbrother
island and Littlebrotherisland. The distance between the two islands is 2km. When you have a rest, you can get off the boat and go to the island to see the lighthouse. There are many early diving surprises here. Personally, I prefer Little
brother, where there are cleaning stations for long-tailed sharks and great gray reef sharks. The underwater environment is rocky cliffs, all kinds of soft and hard corals, giant corals, etc. You can also see pelagic whitetip sharks, Tuna, Jackfish, Snappers, Napoleon, etc. When waiting for long-tailed sharks, don't forget to look back at the deep blue occasionally, maybe Manta
.
There are two sunken ships under p>Bigbrother: Numidia and Aida. Numidia is also a famous and beautiful sunken ship in the Red Sea, but compared with watching sharks, maybe you don't pay so much attention to him.
d-Daedalus
Reef, cliff diving, large depth (45m), shark spots, especially hammerhead sharks. It should be regarded as the dive site with the highest probability of seeing hammerhead sharks, and it is more likely in winter. The most important thing is to pay attention to the depth and not chase sharks. If you leave the reef too far and encounter currents, it will be difficult to come back. This dive site is in the middle of the Red Sea, far from the land, about 1 kilometers. Others can also see pelagic whitetip sharks, barracuda,
tuna, and the cliffs are covered with primitive and healthy large hard corals.
e-elphinstone, cliff diving, compared with BD two diving spots, e is not featured enough, because it is not far from the land and is the only route to enter and leave the dock. You can see greyreef
shark, as well as the common landscapes of the Red Sea, soft and hard corals and common marine life in the Red Sea.
BDE's route lasts 7 days and 7 nights, and the price is around 9-1 Euros. If you can negotiate a 2% discount, it will be 72-8 Euros. Deep south line of the Red Sea
Furyshouls: This is an area with concentrated latent spots, such as the famous FuryShoalGarden, AbuGalawaKebir, the
dolphin leaf (Sha 'absataya). Here you can see sunken ships, big fish and dolphins, Greyreefshark, OceanicWhitetip
Shark, Barracudas, Giantrevallies, Dogtoothtunas and so on. It is worth mentioning that there is a ship from Shanghai, China in Abugarawa
Kebir, which was built in 1935 and sank here in 1943, with a water depth of 17 meters.
p>Rockyisland-Zabargadisland: it's not far. They are all round coral reefs, and soft corals are beautiful, and there may be a lot of flow. The highlights are still all kinds of sharks, baby
white-tipshark, hammerhead sharks, mantaray, greyreefshark and Napoleon.
St.John; S
reefs: This is almost the farthest dive site you can go in Egypt, and further south is Sudan. So the underwater here is more primitive and healthy. It is also composed of a diving spot, complete coral walls, complex passages and maze-like holes. You can see pelagic whitetip sharks, hammerhead sharks, turtles, giant Napoleon, and other common creatures in the Red Sea. Especially in winter, from December to February, I have the opportunity to see dolphins hunting with sharks.
The shipping company will combine the dive sites in these areas to arrange the route. After boarding, it may be slightly adjusted according to the weather and the number of people on board. Common ones are A, Fury Shouls-St. < P > Johns, B, Rocky-Zabargad-St.
Johns, C, Daedalus (D of the southern line)-Rocky-Zabargad, and the trip is usually 7 days and 7 nights, and the price is 9-1,5 euros. If you want abc to cover it all, you can also. Tips for lodging in the Red Sea
