Where to Go Diving in Egypt

Both the northern and southern Red Sea offer vast diving locations to explore. Sharm el-Sheikh, crowded as it may be, is the most popular spot in Egypt, offering beautiful coral arrangements, marine life, wrecks and sharks. However, you can also venture south to Hurghada, a quieter spot to dive and relax, equally as beautiful as Sharm.

Nudibranchs - Facts About The World's Prettiest Slugs

Use It Or Lose It
Lizzie Shipley
Time flies, doesn't it? At the beginning of the year there's the resolution-fuelled vigour of dry January and flash-in-the-pan health kicks. Next up is nature's awakening in spring, followed by the rare but welcome heatwaves of summer (this year, anyway). And before you know it there's the…
