Active Diving – Travelling Solo in Sharm el Sheikh
Regarded as the centre of Egypt, the outstanding diving destination of Sharm el sheikh on the Red sea offers spectacular underwater views and marine life. Sharm el Sheikh has fetched an unsurpassed reputation for diving across the because of its calm, emerald green waters and plethora of marine life in residence. Active Diving offer holidays across the red sea, Sharm el Sheikh offering something for everyone, especially solo travellers.
Whilst travelling through Egypt there are countless ways of meeting fellow travellers, Active Diving brings each of their divers together to ensure a community is created, including each diver whether beginner or experienced. Accommodation in Egypt is often the core area to meet other travellers, especially the popular mentioned in the guide books. Many of the independent travellers are in pairs or on their own and it's perfectly acceptable to join them without any ill feeling.
The red sea boasts some of the best diving in the world, Active Diving and their team can guide you through this vibrant and varied underwater life throughout. The first port of call for Sharm el Sheikh diving is Na'ama Beach, Shark's Bay, Sharm El- Moya, Ras um Sid, and the Terrazina Beach. The Tiran Island is an excellent scuba diving spot at Sharm el Sheikh. Don't be disappointed if you are not a professional diver, there are many tour operators in the UK whom can arrange courses for when you arrive (Active Diving: http://www.activediving.co.uk).
Exploring the spectacular reefs of Ras Nourani under the guidance of expert divers leaves an indelible impression on the minds of the visitors ensuring Sharm el Sheikh diving is a memorable experience for all. Sharm el Sheikh diving is unsurpassed in Egypt and renowned for diving across the globe. The red sea had been a source of wonder and mystery throughout the world for various reasons; however it is now a particularly interesting site because of the plethora of marine treasures hidden beneath its emerald waters. Active Diving are established in Sharm el Sheikh, with some of the most experienced divers in the area guiding and teaching, ensuring your experience will be second to non.
Sharm el Sheikh diving is most definitely in the land of dreams, filled with crystal clear water, splendid corals, awesome underwater vegetation and atypical Piscean species which will not only please your eyes but present you with an opportunity of witnessing some of the best surprises in the sea.
In the popular tourist areas cheap hotels are in abundance. There is a wide range of choice for people on all budgets. There are many dormitory style rooms for those are on the tightest of budgets, however for not much more it is perfectly achievable to get a single room. Active Diving can help you find the right accommodation for your needs and budget, allowing you to concentrate on the diving.
Because Egyptians don't drink much you'll find a majority of the hotels devoid of drunken revelry, but you will find a multitude of late night conversations about where to go and what to see under the water. Active Diving have many guides to the diving in Egypt on their website (http://www.activediving.co.uk/diving_destinations_sharm_el_sheikh.html).
Watch out for the tourist restaurants where although the food may look familiar it will be expensive to find out. A night trip up Mount Sinai-walking in the dark gives everybody a sense of camaraderie and can be done outside of precious diving hours, allowing you to get the most from your holiday in Sharm. Active Diving can recommend the best local restaurants to visit upon your arrival, showing you some local cuising and culture rather than an interpretation of British cuisine.
