Tuesday

Shark & Jolanda Reef, Jackfish Alley, Jackson and Laguna Reef.

The pre-breakfast today was Shark & Jolanda reefs in Ras Mohammed - a Red Sea classic wall dive. Whirlwind backed into the reef on the north side of Shark and we all piled in 'penguin style' off the back of the boat. We drifted with the current along the wall that is Shark reef towards Jolanda reef, looking down into the 600m+ darkness. Awesome.
