That's cool. Post the pic when you get back. I can't wait to go to the Red Sea in September.
Yeah it was amazing,dare i say it i was getting a bit bored with bluewater diving till this happened.We had the reef on our right shoulder and i just saw the DM finning like crazy into the blue (i thought wtf has he seen :eek:) i took off after him,i've never swam so fast underwater (whilst trying to find my camera and switch it on :o) we got pretty close maybe 3-4M away from it,the other two in our group got left behind and didn't see it :o.
Off to the straits of tiran and jackson reef in the morning to try and see hammerheads :)
Well done, must've been a great sight. :eek:
I Didn't see any in the Maldives last year. :(

The group from Dumbarton Scot SAC saw a whaleshark at Ras Katy on their check dive from the Orchid last year.
Unfortunately, check dive = no cameras :(

I was told that Jackson Reef in July was the best for seeing hammerheads.
Good luck. SG
