  • thanks for the comment on my work. i accept that many people do not agree with what this video is saying, and i don't offer any solution to what is happening, but i think sharm is an interesting model for other places that are growing, or have grown, or will grow into massive tourism centres. also, many people that live there, many don't really see the decline as it is too subtle, but those that return there after a few years comment on it regularly.

  • I agree about the mass tourism can have huge impact on the coral barrier, but I think that's better than to open all the coast to a tourism "low impact". I'm a frequent flyer to SSH (6 weeks/year) for scuba pourposes and I realize that there is no low or high impact tourism 'cause all operators are interested in max profists: the proof is the opening to russian tourism (low cost if compared to EU prices) and the improved ratio of divers/boat with a general lowering of the quality standards.

  • Once upon a time, all the scuba guides were rangers of the Ras Mohammed and Tiran marine reserves, now they're the same but.. only on the paper since for 1 who briefs correctly his divers, other 2 don't do it and permits everything to them.. People who dive "drunk" and hotel's customers walking on the barrier are almost normal situation, but fortunately only in the "small" coast in front of the hotels.

  • Some year ago the fishing wasn't allowed, now every evening you can see "felucas" fishing in Ras Mohammed park on close to other well known places rich of fishes, and 1 year ago for the first time I found a fishing net wrapped by corals on a 35mt deep passage.
