Re: Spearfishing North coast

This is a pic of one of the 2 brither islands (big brother) which is off quseir right smack in the middle of the red sea between Egypt and Saudi, as you can see just a rock with a lighthouse..this is one of the best dive spots in Egypt, lots f currents though, lots of sharks, pelagics, beautiful soft corals, a couple of wrecks..the currents there get so strong at times, i think a couple of years back a group of german divers, got swept by the current, they were found the next day by a fishing boat about 60 miles far all huddled up in formation and they were fine, sometimes you'd look at the divers going down in the boat next to you and you can see how quickly their bubbles are drifting far from the reef, a few minutes later, they surface exhasuted from fighting the current and giving their dive guide the odd look for getting the current all wrong
