Hello. We are gearing up for our first snorkel adventure since Coral Triangle in January 2020. It's been that long since we have been in the water. We are early 70s, are/were very good snorkelers. We have always wanted to go to Sharm El Sheikh and think if not now, when.
We want this to be a fairly easy experience as we snorkel our way back into shape. Hawaii in 2023 is probably next stop, once crazy prices for hotels mellow.
Ultimate goal is to be in shape to take a Blue Manta Komodo trip in June/July 2023 or 2024. (INCREDIBLY GRACIOUSLY, they are carrying our old deposit forward.)
Thus, we will stay at Four Seasons and use their boats as well as go on house reefs.
Is there much difference between September and October wrt snorkeling conditions? Water temp, clarity, currents, storms?
We plan to bring our own gear. We have 3 mm shorties, skins, masks, snorkels, fins, socks and waterproof tape for toes
Any feedback, tips, or advice welcomed, including best ways to get from Washington DC to Sharm.
Many thanks.
