Red Sea August 2-16, 2027
The Red Sea is a saltwater inlet of the Indian Ocean, located between Africa and Asia. The sea is known for its warm, clear waters and unique marine life, making it a popular destination for scuba diving and snorkeling.
The Red Sea is bordered by several countries including Egypt, Sudan, Eritrea, Djibouti, Saudi Arabia and Yemen.
The Red Sea is unique in that it is one of the saltiest bodies of water in the world, with salinity levels reaching up to 40%. It is home to over 1000 species of fish, many of which are endemic to the area. It is also home to numerous species of sharks. The sea’s coral reefs are some of the most diverse and pristine in the world.
What To Expect
Scuba Diving
Scuba divers might choose to travel to the Red Sea for any number of reasons, but among them are intact shipwrecks, shoals of sharks and colorful coral reefs. Reef sharks, oceanic whitetips, hammerheads, tigers and thresher sharks can be encountered throughout the region. Whale sharks, dugongs and dolphins may also surprise lucky divers.
The reef life is also breathtaking. There are more than 800 species of fish. At least 10% of these species are endemic to the Red Sea. Sheer walls, shallow reefs, pinnacles and open ocean drifts are common, but the most popular are shipwrecks, including both the Thistlegorm and the Umbria, accessible World War II wrecks.
