Diving Red Sea - amazing
experience that should not be missed during Egypt travel
Scuba diving is the use of
independent breathing equipment to stay underwater for long periods of time for
recreational diving and professional diving. The diver swims underwater, but
walking and the use of diver propulsion vehicles is possible while breathing
from scuba equipment.
The word 'SCUBA' is
an acronym for "Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus", but
it is grammatically acceptable to refer to 'scuba equipment' or
'scuba apparatus' in conversation. The two types of scuba equipment
are the "open-circuit" Aqua-lung, developed by Emile Gagnan with
assistance from Jacques-Yves Cousteau and the "closed-circuit"
rebreather.
Red Sea - gulf of Indian
Ocean between Africa and Asia. The connection to the ocean is in the
south through the Bab el Mandeb sound and the Gulf of Aden. In the
north is the Sinai Peninsula, the Gulf of Aqaba and the Gulf of Suez
(leading to Suez Canal). The Red sea is roughly 1,900 km long and at
its widest is over 300 km. The Red sea floor has a maximum depth of
2,500 m in the central median trench and an average depth of 500 m.
It also has extensive shallow shelves, noted for their marine life
and corals. Red sea has surface area of 450,000 km². Red sea is the habitat of over 1,000 invertebrate
species and 200 soft and hard corals. Red sea occupies a part of
the Great Rift Valley. Red Sea is the world's most northern
tropical sea.
Salinity of Red Sea
reaches 4 % as of low humidity and the high rate of evaporation
due to high temperature in the region all year round. This makes
Red Sea one of the saltiest life-sustaining seas in the world.
Red Sea and its surrounding is suitable for
travel, diving and snorkelling. Summer, from May to
September, the weather at Red Sea surrounding is hot (between 30°C
to 45°C), dry and windless. At that time, water is about 27°C and is
usually clear. Visibility while diving Red Sea exceeds 28 m.
During winter season - October to April, weather
at Red Sea is warm, from 15°C to 30 °C degrees, dry but hard
windy. Visibility for diving Red Sea and snorkelling at some places
is less then 25 m, but is never less then 22 m. Water
temperature of Red Sea is no less then 21°C during the season.
