Dive Red Sea - the Ultimate Guide
by Simon Rogerson & John McIntyre"DIVE Red Sea is surely the 'must have' book to pack into the dive bag of anyone wanting to get the best out of diving the Red Sea. Readers will find a mountain of information and advice. This book represents a unique and rewarding journey."
Michael Pitts,

“Dive Red Sea is lavishly illustrated, with terrific images and diagrams of reef, wreck, marine life and wide eyed divers… The only problem with Dive Red Sea – the ultimate guide is that I didn’t have it on my last trip to the Red Sea. It’ll certainly be coming along on the next one.”

The Art of Diving and adventure in the underwater world
by Nick Hanna & Alexander Mustard“Come, dive into Nick Hanna and Alexander Mustard’s bright blue world. This is the best book about diving since Jacques Cousteau’s The Silent World. Here turtles bow, flounders court, sharks skulk and, best of all, divers leap, soar and even meditate. This is dynamic underwater imagery at its best.”

Thistlegorm
One of the World's most popular wrecks the Thistlegorm has inspired divers to follow in the
finprints of the great masters like Cousteau, who first discovered the
site in the 1950s back in the pioneering days of the aqualung. Much has been said and written over the years about the Thistlegorm. Almost every part of the wreck has been pored over by the armies of divers who converge on it from morning till night almost every day of the year. more...
