Diving in Dahlak
This trip, addressed to scuba divers, is proposed with varying
durations according to your needs: from three to seven day
cruise. It 'a proposal aimed to those who want to escape from
the stress and the "modernity" and enjoy days spent
quite simply, diving in a transparent sea watching closely
fish of beautiful colors, funnily shaped and unimaginable
colored corals, eating fish caught by oneself, falling asleep
under a sky with billions of stars. In a few words a return
to that wonderful feeling of being commune with nature. Surrounded
by darkness, the splendour of the stars and the absolute silence
you’ll spend magical nights that will restore your heart
and sou.l Please take note that in Massawa is
not available a hyperbaric chamber, and if necessary, medical
care is limited . That is why, usually the dive master will
not allow diving beyond the 30-40mt.
Remember that you will need time to recover the jet lag due
to an altitude of 2450 meters separating Massawa to
Asmara, from whose airport you’ll have to start
over. It is not permitted hunting underwater by harpoon gun
and currently even diving on wrecks, although the latter will
probably be authorized in short term. This cruise require
a certain ability to adapt to austerity.
