It was exciting to dive into the Red Sea again. Sahl Hasheesh was a new place for us.
Here are a few photos of the underwater world:

Thank you for visiting my travel blog!
We love to photograph in the Red Sea. Have a look at the most recent photos. You just might decide to plunge in yourself! 🙂 I can warmly recommend snorkeling, diving and photographing close to the coral reefs.
To go underwater in the Red Sea takes you to a whole new world, a beautiful and fascinating world.
You can see hundreds of Lyretail Anthias, Scalefin Anthias, and Half-And-Half Cromis.
Once I met a BigEye Emperor and was truly surprised by the size of this fish, which is rarely seen at Port Ghalib, Egypt.
It swam slowly past me and disappeared into the deep blue sea.
The Bluespine Unicornfish, a juvenile this time, is so cute and neat. The spines are barely seen as small blue dots.
Chevron Butterflyfish likes to swim together. Here are two of them, and seems like they are dancing the same choreography. They seem to like the Raspberry Coral.
Lyretail Anthiascan sometimes surprise the photographer with its glowing oragne color. Do you see the yellow Sulfur Damselfish. It is on the right and is quite small.

We are lucky to get to travel again to the Red Sea. As November is a very dark and rainy month in Finland, we look forward to the fantastic sunshine of Port Ghalib in Egypt. We also look forward to stay in our favourite hotel, formerly Intercontinental Palace, nowadays Red Sea Hotel’s The Palace Port Ghalib. The sandy beach and the coral reef in front of it are fabulous.
We can warmly recommend Port Ghalib, the Palace Port Ghalib hotel and to dive into the Red Sea.
To go underwater is fantastic.
A few photographs from our previous vacation:
We love to dive into the Red Sea. It is full of beautiful fish and corals.
This is a Blackside Hawkfish, a young one:
To watch the colorful corals and the deep blue sea takes your breath away. The view is fascinating.
It is wonderful to go under the corals into a world you did not know exists:
One of my favorites is the Exquisite Butterflyfish:
I can warmly recommend to visit Egypt, for example Port Ghalib, where the beaches and the sea life is amazing and wonderful.
Since I was a child, I have been dreaming of visiting the mysterious, beautiful and fabulous Egypt, the country I had only read about in books.
Finnish writer Mika Waltari wrote a historical novel. It was first published in Finnish in 1945, and has been translated to 40 languages.
Then there were all the pictures, postcards and movies of the great and mysterious pyramids and sfinks. The Great Sphinx of Giza, commonly referred to as the Sphinx, is a limestone statue of a reclining or couchant sphinx (a mythical creature with a lion’s body and a human head) that stands on the Giza Plateau on the west bank of the Nile in Giza, Egypt.
Some years ago we found on Finnmatkat web pages information of a new destination – Marsa Alam. Close to the airport there are Coraya Bay and Port Ghalib. We visited Coraya Bay a few years ago. It was a great week.
We decided to try Port Ghalib, due to the high class hotel and the amazing coral reefs right next to the marvellous and private sandy beach of The Palace Port Ghalib Resort. I fell in love with the hotel, the personnel, the interior, the food, the splendid service, the beach and the coral reefs. So did my husband. The colorful fish and amazing coral offer you new things to see each day. I have even seen a few sea turtles, swimming just five meters from me.
The Picasso triggerfish is one of my favourites.
The yellow exquisite butterflyfish is another beautiful and exotic fish.
This is a short intro to the future stories and photos from the best place in Egypt – The Palace Port Ghalib Resort. If you enjoy kind and open people, sunny days, warm days, great beaches, snorkelling and diving, luxury hotels, relaxation, superb spas, fabulous food – travel right away to Marsa Alam.
