5 reasons to dive in Sudan!
—————————-

1. Diving in Sudan is one of the most beautiful and adventuorus in the world. Hammerheads are one of the most popular sharks but there are plenty of grey reef sharks and even tigers too.
2. The Sudanese waters are untouched and can be reached only by zodiacs, including the world famous Shaab Rumi where Cousteau conducted his experiments on how man could live under the water.
3. The pristine sea hides some of the most amazing coral reefs in the world. This is the home of Cousteau’s underwater empire.
4. The wildest variety of marine life make diving so exhilarating here.
5. There are also exciting wrecks to discover. Umbria is a wreck that should be on every serious metal head’s wish list.  This massive freighter is found just outside of Port Sudan and so large that several dives are really needed to explore it in its impressive entirety.  She was scuttled by her own captain who was fearful that his cargo of ammunition, aircraft bombs and trucks would fall into enemy hands.
