marsa shagri or nakari camps

wacko · Jan 14, 2006

Hi Everyone,

I'm taking a trip to southern Egypt at the end of the month and I have the option of 2 different camps for the same price.
Has anyone been to both these camps? Which one has the best reef? I've heard Nakari is smaller. Am I gonna freeze at this time of year?

Any experiences would be appreciated.

Thanks,

wacko..

You chose the coldest time to dive here. The water temperature is nearly 18-19 C. Air Temperature is 20 C in the day and down to nearly 8 at night. I go for a 7mm Semi Dry if I am diving now.
Usually in Marsa Allam, you will be going to the same reefs by Zodiacs and Jeeps so don't really worry about that. I heard about Marsa Shagara but no the other one and my friends said it is nice.

Hey,
I was in Marsa Shagra RSDS last summer (end of August-beginning September)
Nice reefs, lots of fishes, good organisation, good food, very friendly people..
Very relaxed too..
The temperatures surely were a lot higher, water 29-31°C.
Great experience!
Wish u a nice stay over there!

Well guys.
Marsa Shagra, Nakari, and Lahami Bay are all RSDS camps. Shagra is the most famous one.
Temperature here is about 20 degree C.
