Comments my dive buddy and i have been all over but never the red sea. diving lived up to the hype. Hard corals were wonderful and fish life large and small prolific. we made arrangements though Tony Backhurst scuba travel (info@scuba.co.uk). you leave london with a bunch of friendly brits and fly direct to Marsa alam on the egyptian southern coast. liveabourd mates a bunch of friendly brits. we heard that the further south the trip the better the diving. Lots of oil money starting to develope the coast. in 2-4 years the place may look like cabo san lucus so i recomend going sooner rather than later if it is on your "bucket list"
