EGYPT 02/2002 - SAINT JOHN'S SITE

back

.
Unfortunately, some corals are dead (dynamite fishing). Inspite of this, the Saint John area gives a lot a pleasure to divers. It is not rare to come across sharks: grey (Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos), white tip (Triaenodon obesus and Carcharhinus albimarginatus) and even oceanic sharks (Carcharhinus longimanus).
