A really cool relaxing dive alongside the reef of Marsa Shouna.

It was pretty shallow with mostly hard corals but of fish life – schools of silvery striped mackerel swimming around with their mouths open to feed. Also saw a couple of huge hawksbills turtles, lots of pipefish, blue spotted rays, goat fish, anthias, remoras (strange looking things), butterfly fish, crocodile fish, toadfish, lion fish and a huge starry puffer.

I would love to know what you think...
