Diving
& Snorkeling Red Sea
Jean-Bernard
Carillet, Gavin
Anderson, Pete

For five millennia people have gathered along the shores of the Red Sea, but
only in the past five decades have recreational divers delved beneath the waves.
They flock here to explore the incredibly diverse underwater topography and
marine life, as well as shipwrecks such as the Thistlegorm and the wrecks of
Sha'ab Abu Nuhas. On land visitors can wander ancient ruins and buzzing souqs or
tour the desert atop a camel. From the towering walls of Ras Mohammed to the
offshore islands of The Brothers and Zabargad, this book describes 108 of the
best Red Sea sites, with full-color photos throughout.
