Memories from Greece

March 4, 2020 Johanna Leave a comment

Greece is a beautiful country. Here are some of our memories from our wonderful vacations in Greece.

When a cloudy day begins, a trip to enjoy some old ruins is a fun thing to do. During the sunny and hot days it is best to stay by the sea and swim in the wonderful bays.

Kinetta beach is a wonderful beach. Peaceful and beautiful.

Alepochori is a wonderful small town in Greece. Many happy moments and hot, sunny days.

I can recommend to visit Greece. If you like hot weather, travel in July or August. If you like less hot, but sunny and warm days, travel in May, June or September.

Dive into the Red Sea

The underwater world is so exciting, beautiful and magnificent.

We Are Dancing — The Masked Butterfly fish like to dance around the corals.

Red Sea Parrotfish Colorfully — There are hundreds of different Parrotfish in the Red Sea

Exotic Red Sea Yellowtail Tang — The Yellowtail Tang is so exotic. And a shy fish too. Glad to have captured it with my camera.

This post is for your inspiration. A little bit of joy and color to the day! Hope you like what you see.

If you want to have a look at more fish and coral photographies, welcome to my fish art pages.

The Oberoi Sahl Hasheesh

April 10, 2019 Johanna Leave a comment

A little over 1 year ago, I read about a fantastic place in Egypt. The Oberoi Sahl Hasheesh.

“Located directly upon the shore of the Red Sea, a comfortable thirty minutes from the centre of Hurghada, The Oberoi, Sahl Hasheesh is a spectacular, forty eight acre, all suite hotel, with a certified PADI dive centre and a large private beach.

Inspired by traditional Arabic designs, our luxury hotel in Sahl Hasheesh has luxurious accommodations and restaurants which feature classical, domed ceilings and long corridors. They are illuminated by Arabic style lamps and framed by elegant columns decorated with the traditional Islamic eight point star.

We offer all guests complimentary access to high speed Internet for up to four devices.”

Our dream was to visit this fantastic hotel and dive into the Red Sea with our cameras.

Our dream came true in March 2018. And again in March 2019!

The Oberoi is such a magnificent place, I can warmly recommend a short or a long vacation at this beautiful Five Star All Suite Hotel!

If you like a peaceful and beautiful pool area and beach, rather than a very crowded one, you will love Oberoi Sahl Hasheesh. The seaview is amazing. The waves touch gently the wonderful sandy beach. And there is plenty of space for all visitors to sunbathe on the beach. They have also great service also at the beach. Towels, sunchairs, water and even sunscreen. And the suites, the service and the food… they are magnificent and wonderful!

If you like to swim in the sea, snorkel and watch the wonderful Red Sea underwater world, you can do so very easily from the pier. There is also the possibility to scubadive. We like freediving and photographing underwater.

Have a wonderful day!

ps. if you are interested in enjoying more of my underwater photos, welcome to my pixelspage.
