October 2008 Sixth Visit to Nuweiba. Went to see friends before they left for Thailand. Dive centre under new managers, who are trying hard but have a tough act to follow, however I think they will do ok. Diving still good but a lot of urchins about.

July 2007 Emporer Divers are great people. Hilton house reef amazing photo opportunity. dolphins and turtles too if your lucky! Some lovely coral gardens at Ras El Shetan. All the sites we dived we were the only divers there! You wont be disappointed if you go to Nuweiba. Emporers have started a trip to Dahab to dive the Canyon and Blue hole top trip and a contrast to Nuweiba dont miss it!

February 2008 Great place for divers, for non-divers not a lot to do. Very laid back, service slow but who cares? great diving away from the madding crowds in Sharm. Hope it doesn't get ruined.
