Just came back from a 3 days trip targeting the northern wrecks. We started from Hurghada early on Friday and back to the marina on Sunday around 5. We were targeting to dive some reefs on our way to Abunahas, spend a day for the wrecks there then cross to Thistlegorm doing 2 dives and then back to Hurghada again.
The weather was not that nice with us so we decided to skip the part of the crossing to thistlegorm and just stick to the reefs and wrecks around abunahas.
My general feedback about marine life is that although the past period was bad for dive industry in Egypt and less people/boats were out in the sea but this was very healthy for marine life. Corals and nourishing, fish schools in certain places are really increasing and for the second time in less than a year we have dolphins playing with us underwater for more than 20 minutes in one dive....
Here are some photos and a nice video of the dolphins !
