Thanks Arthur, Yes I've read good things about the Egyptin restaurant you mention aswell, will def. check it out since my last trip to Egypt, I suspect, really didnt represent an authentic impression of their food.. atleast I dont hope so
Will be staying at Hilton dreams.. got a really good price at hotels.com (I recommend this site for finding cheap accomadation only pay 30£ Sterling per night incl. breakfast!!) and dive with Colona
Really looking forward to dive red sea again!! Hope its not too hot... read somewhere people are experiencing 40 degrees there now!!
BTW: Is it nesting season for titan triggerfish in the red sea now??
Hi, I'm new to diving and will be going to Dubai and Jordan the last week of Oct. Should I dive in Sharm or Agaba? What dive tours do you recommend? How do I get from Amman or Dubai to that region. Appreciate any advice! Thanks, Christina

The majority prefers Sharm to Aqaba (Jordan). However, if you want relaxed environment and excellent diving, try Dahab.
From Dubai you have to book a flight. From Amman you can either come by plane or by taxi through Taba.

I am planning to visit the area of Sharm el-shiekh in March 2010. Can anyone tell what type of exposure suit I should bring with me? 3mm? 5mm? 7mm? Dry? Also, could one snorkel at that time of the year without an exposure suit?

Water temp should be about 24/25 deg C so a 5mm suit will be fine. Weather is really warming up in May so will be super. Snorkelling you may get cold without a suit but people do snorkel even now without a suit and whilst the water is 24/25 deg C the wind is cold.
last december 10th i was staying in hadaba in sharm and i snorkled all week without and exposure suit, just shorts and fins mask and snorkle
i also used a 3mm shortie while diving without any problems at all, the water is really lovely all year round,i have been there in summer and winter and never a problem with the cold at all hahah
