Do not go Diving in the Red Sea without this book!!! 20 May 2001

By A Customer

Format:Paperback

This book was an essential tool on my first scuba diving trip to the Red Sea. I took it with me for my reference however it soon became the book on the boat that all divers were using. Many divers went home with the details of this book so that they could also purchase it.

The book allows you to identify most common types of underwater species categorized by family group. You can find out the name of the creature that swam alongside you!!

The only reason I rated this book a four and not a five is because it lacks detail on nudibranch. An interesting species that a trained eye will spot in the Red Sea.

The book has certainly increased my awareness of what lives in the Red Sea. It is the first thing packed for all Red Sea holidays.

EXCELLENT REFERENCE BOOK 27 April 2009

By JD

Format:Paperback

We bought this book before a trip to Egypt and The Red Sea. It proved very useful as a reference book. We spent two weeks snorkelling at Marsa Alam and saw numerous different species of fish, which we we able to easily identify from the book. Good value from Amazon.

Pretty good reference to Red Sea fishes/corals. 11 Jan 2002

By A Customer

Format:Paperback

I took this on a recent diving holiday and it was useful for identification, although some of the photos are a little ropey (especially on silver fish). A good general guide though.
