Where is the best solo shore diving on the planet?

For me it has been the Saudi coast of the Red Sea.

The majority of my 700+ dives there were shore dives, and access was easy, but that was back in the 90s and 2000s.

Marsa Shargra in Egypt. It's 1 of 3 sites run by Red Sea Diving Safari
It's a small diving village. Unlimited diving and the allow solo dives during the day. The reefs are amazing and really looked after.
I've done a handful of solo dives on the reefs there as I've just certified but looking to go again this year!

So just curious why you'd come here and ask us what we do or think?

I would argue based on his criteria a car would not be required. Could spend a month out by West Punt, followed by a month close to town, and a month down east. Then he could get away with a bike.

Allwest is a phenomenal deal...not sure policy on solo diving; truck rental plus oceanfront accommodations...have searched bonaire & other curacao locations & haven't found anything close

I go solodiving in Indonesia next week, so after that I can tell you my experiences. But at least the hotel+unlimited diving is not that expensive.

In Malta you also can do easy solodiving, but need a car. And on Malta itself the traffic is horrible. On Gozo it is better. Zeeland in the Netherlands is also a good place to do solodiving. But it can also be done in France in the caves in the Lot area or Jura, no problems there.

Where in Indonesia is awesome shore diving?? I've always heard live aboard but LOVE shore diving and it's cheaper!
