    Malpelo....is there a better or worse time of year to go?

    more animals in jan/feb but less visibility because of plancton (reason why animals are there) water is colder and more chances to see the "ondontaspis ferox"... more visibility and silky sharks in summer... and the water will be warmer we have now "el nino", thus much warmer sea temperatures...

    LOB for family?

    I think it should be better to go first a week in Safaga to gain experience (and to pass AOW and OW for the children).... There are some spectacular spots for experienced divers (try the north point of Abu Kifan, you'll see....).

    Unknown Two missing Lacs de l'Eau d'Heure, two bodies found - Plate Taille, Belgium

    The dam is operated remotely by Total Energie, and indeed, there's no way of knowing that divers are in the area, whether they are authorized or not - this is not a point for discussion. Activation of the turbines depends on the operator, and follows demand from the electricity grid. On the...

    Cargo Ship hijacked in Red Sea near Yemen

    J. Bantin is perfectly right. In order to help conserve the marine environment in the Red Sea, and and to reduce the number of divers, which will be of interest to us, regular enthusiasts of this region, read this: The French armed forces said in a statement that the "Languedoc" multi-mission...

    Cargo Ship hijacked in Red Sea near Yemen

    Seriously ..... There is interest in these news, geopolitically and economically speaking, culturally and humanely speaking. A diver is also a human and should therefore have broader intellectual interests. But I'm not sure this forum is the right place for this. Have a look at a marine...

    Cargo Ship hijacked in Red Sea near Yemen

    You are perfectly right, sure liveaboards in Egyptian waters may be attacked by the pirates coming from Yemen or Somalia .... sure these people are equipped to sail more than 1000 kms further in the north without any problem : and I wonder if they haven't recently brought a nuclear submarine...

    Question Egypt Safety due ongoing War in the region

    Isn't it time to end this discussion ? If you want to go to dive in the Red Sea, you may go to Egypt. If you are afraid, don't go. And it's all.

    Question Egypt Safety due ongoing War in the region

    Just back from the Red Sea : absolutely no problem related to the war in Israel. When you watch the TV satellite channels from all the surrounding countries (not israeli, of course, even not available), you may be afraid of what you see... but it has always be like this, extremists of all...

    Red Sea November 2023

    I'll arrive also on 1st nov with some friends. On what boat are you going ? I don't think your daughters will risk anything, just make them aware of the cultural differences. I was in Israel (Eilat) until the last day before the 1st gulf war, and I only realized the seriousness of the...
