While I am finishing the packing of suitcases and bags, the Festival has already taken off this Monday with a first day of “shoot-out” for the participants…
What you have to imagine here is a huge dive center located directly on the Red Sea, which turns for a week into an underwater photographer's paradise. The foreign affluence is very important this year, and in all corners flashes and boxes occupy every square centimeter of available table. Also interesting to note, the fact that many of the registered photographers also signed in the video category - this clearly shows how the increased possibilities of digital cameras in terms of film have opened up a new playing field, from GoPro to SLRs, none doubt we will see cool things coming out of the water!

Hello
I also did this superb cruise on this magnificent L'Exocet boat last April. The weather conditions were great. Getting equipped while listening to music, it was great as well as the little smoothie after diving to rehydrate! I saw superb wrecks, drop offs very rich in flora and fauna. Gray sharks and foxes on the Brothers, meeting with dolphins, turtles and very curious napoleons filled me with joy. In the evening, the aperitifs between divers were nice and we were lucky to have Christophe who set the mood for us by making us dance on Stromaé! We also had a professional cameraman Yves who sent us to all the divers on the boat the films he shot during the cruise, adorable! Moreover, our arrival at the port of Hurgada was noticed: everyone was dancing on ”so we dance”!!! The crew and especially the instructors Jean-Michel and Gaby were very professional, we felt good framed. In short, if I come back for a diving cruise, it will be on the Exocet, that's for sure!
