Have we mentioned that Longimanus have been seen again in August at Elphinstone? It has been a tradition for years that around August and September the Oceanic Whitetip sharks (Longimanus) appear at Elphinstone for some unknown reason. For the past few weeks 5 beautiful specimens have been staying near the reef and posing for the joy of divers.

From now on free WIFI Internet connection is available in Egypt to divers on both of our boats – M/Y Cassiopeia and M/Y Andromeda.

Internet connection has become a necessity these days, whether for work or entertainment or to be available for us during our holidays. In order to satisfy these demands, we have equipped both boats with WIFI internet connection. We are happy we were able to synchronise the technical advances of our age and the demand of guests for Internet connection in a way as not to present any additional expenses to the divers during the safaris.

Thanks to this improvement, divers onboard M/Y Cassiopeia and M/Y Andromeda can surf the Net free of charge on their notebooks or other devices with WLAN connection, starting in the summer of 2011. Today almost all portable computers and most smart phones are WIFI-enabled.

Free Internet connection gives divers the chance to follow their e-mails during their safari, to keep in touch with family and friends and to share their photos taken on the trips on their community pages before arriving home.

Of course, this is not mandatory , so those of you who wish to keep your holiday restful and free of any interruptions, you may leave your devices turned off.

Our latest promotional film has been completed, courtesy of Zsolt Sasdi. It has only been circulating on the Net for a short while but thanks to Facebook events, appearing on the home page and all of you sharing it with others, it has been seen and commented on by many. We like it a lot! What do you think?

Temperatures in Egypt now are around the usual 30C, just like in Europe except for the gentle northerly winds that sooth us from the heat and allows us to dip in the Red Sea any time. And one more good thing for divers these days in Egypt, that the reefs will surely not be crowded and the marine life is still just as rich and abundant as any other time during the year.

Here are a couple of summer weeks where you can find places for your next safari:

1. August 14-21, 2011 — M/Y Cassiopeia — St Johns/Abu Fandira tour
2. August 17-24, 2011 — M/Y Andromeda — St Johns tour
