Red Sea underwater photography guide

The Red Sea: The World's largest landlocked sea. Surrounded by desert so very little rainwater run-off to spoil the visibility. Sheer drop-offs are a short walk over the fore-reef away. The central Red Sea is the best for diving but is a politically unstable area with unreliable travel connections.

Oct-Apr is season but there's more fish in summer

Visibility
80' 100' (north) 100'+ (south)

Water Temp
68 -100 (north) 68 -100+(south)

Thistlegorm, karnatic, Giannis D (Sharm El Shiek) Umbria, Couteaus, habitat (Port Sudan)
