Below is random selection of hotels and 10 dive packages....alarmingly cheap! courtesy of divers international website...www.diversintl.com
Hotel Sofitel Sharm el-Sheikh (5)
Sofitel 5 Star Hotel (Sharm el-Sheikh) – 7 Nights Accommodation (B&B) with a 5 Day / 10 Dive Package - 465 €
All rooms with sea view.


The Three Corners Kiroseiz 5 Star Resort (Sharm el-Sheikh) – 7 Nights Accommodation (All Inclusive) with a 5 Day / 10 Dive Package - 395 €



The Three Corners St. George 4 Star Resort (Sharm el-Sheikh) – 7 Nights Accommodation (All Inclusive) with a 5 Day / 10 Dive Package - 360 €


Sofitel 5 Star Hotel (Hurghada) – 7 Nights Accommodation (All Inclusive) with a 5 Day / 10 Dive Package - 420 €



Diving includes 2 dives per day, plus tanks (12L), weights, guide and transfers. Entry fee for the National Parks and environmental taxes needs to be paid locally.


All accommodation packages are per person based on double occupancy and depend on availability. Prices may change during holiday periods and single supplements apply.


15% discount for booking online.


PLUS


Flights - prob £250£300 squids. (EG: easyjet fly Gatwick to Sharm 5 October return 12 October £250 including all taxes)


So totals = £250 return flights + £370 accom + 10 dives (package) = aaaaahhhh £620! thats quite pricey all of a sudden, er...is it?


Possibly better idea to get accommodation and dives separately? Just get air and weights there and no guided dives? Who knows..not me.



Those interested write beneath - an me and Chris_UK are the main perpetrators of this plan...wld be fandaby-dosy to get even numbers who dont mind sharing to avoid single supplements...any suggestions or amendments much welcome :-)
