Sharm el Sheikh, September 2009
A week away with my dive club for 5 days diving with Marina Divers and staying at the Shams Suites hotel. I booked in at the last minute, but we had a good week. Steve – who fixed it up – sorted an overnight to the Thistlegorm- only the second time I’d done it.
Unfortunately, the “outside” photos of this wreck didn’t work too well.
I actually enjoyed the last night dive – on the White Knights house reef – enormously. There was one really wierd thingy – I need to find out what it was, and huge Spanish Dancer.
The hotel’s in Nabq – away from my normal stay in Naama. Don’t know if it was the time of year, or the location, but we seemed to pick up a load of mosquito bites. After the Eid holiday finished, we had the place pretty much to ourselves.
Marina were very helpful, and we had some good diving. Thanks (especially) to Frank and Mido.
I don’t mind getting away on my own, but is was a really nice change to be away with some friends.
