In addition, climatic conditions in Egypt are favorable for diving at any time of the year: high temperatures keep there all the year round (even at least +20 in winter), because of which the waters of the Red Sea are always warm (at least +21). And the weather is almost not clouded by storms or torrential rains.

What you will not see in the depths of the Red Sea: graceful butterfly fish, dangerous moray eels and barracudas, stingrays, unruffled unicorn fish, friendly dolphins, wise turtles, tuna and even bloodthirsty crocodiles. If desired, you can "wander" through the magnificent labyrinths of coral reefs, the color range of which varies from white and red to amazing blue, and suddenly encounter an unusual-looking sea creature.
