RSD - that's the one I wrote about at the beggining - didn't remember the name:

For local Egyptian food you have to go to Old Sharm Just at the exit from Old Market there is a restaurant (I don’t remember the name) which you can’t miss – there is a big grill outside. Great food.
so i will edit this post to have the name
You're absolutly right - they make miracles not food

Can't remember exactly where, but if you walk along the beach path/promenade out of Naama Bay towards Sonesta Beach, it's on the left.

how many dives a day can be dived/dove(sp?) from a liveaboard safely?
Normally we do 3 to 4 dives per day.
The first day we did the Thistlegorm (2 dives) and the Small Crack (night dive). The Thistlegorm dives were tiring because of strong currents.
The second day we did the Dunraven, Anemone-Shark-Yolanda, and Ras Zaatar.
Since there's a thread created for Sharm El-Sheikh, I'm going to fire a salvo of questions to those familiar with this city:
1. How much should I set aside for my accomodation if I wish to stay in a 3 star hotel?
2. Any nice hotel to recommend? Budget is about USD 60 per night.
3. What is a reasonable price to pay for 1 day of say 3 dives?
4. Which are the best dive sites from Sharm?
5. What is the modus operandi of the dive operators there? Do they pick you up from the hotel if it's in Naama Bay? Do the dive boats have warm showers?
6. I'm going there in April so what's the water temperature and how thick a wet suit should I be wearing?
7. Are 3-4 days enough for Sharm? I've got a total of 9 days in Egypt. Suggested itinerary is always welcomed!
8. And of course, any dive operators to recommend?
And, if there's any other information that may be useful, let me know too!
Thanks in advance!
