I am not a tourist, I have been living in Sharm for 5 years, and, to be honest, this is the first time such a situation has happened, not because the media was silent before, but because it is really the first time sharks attack near the coast. Attacks have happened before, beaches have also been closed, but this happened at a decent depth. I have tourists resting now in the Nabq area, some hotels have not closed the beaches today, it's strange though. But, the attack today was in the Naama Bay area, where all the beaches were closed and a team was sent to catch the shark again ... The main question that worries everyone here is: WHAT IS THE CAUSE OF THIS PREDATOR BEHAVIOR, which usually hunted at depth ... Some say that this is a wounded shark that cannot get its prey in a normal way.

We left Sierra on 2.12 in the morning. The first time the beach was closed at 16-00 on 11.30. Nobody could say why, but in my opinion the beach workers really didn’t know, they said that some kind of engineering work. as usual, I swam and took pictures along the reef for an hour. After breakfast, at about 9-30 I returned to the beach again - everything was as usual - everyone swam and dived in full. At 11-30 again everyone was kicked out of the water and a red flag was hung up, but this time they started talking about sharks, but as if it was some kind of joke. In the evening they came to the beach - panton is closed - the lifeguard already seriously said that they closed all the beaches, canceled trips to the sea on yachts with diving, that the shark " "bitten" 4 people. There were several yachts along the shore, they seemed to be engaged in catching sharks. All the same, according to a good Russian habit, everything was not taken seriously. There were no decadent moods among the vacationers, no one spoke about sharks.
I understood the seriousness of the situation when, on the morning of 2.12, when I was going to board the plane, I heard on ORT news about the attack on Russian and Ukrainian tourists.

Yes, scary
We are planning a trip for March, we are already thinking of changing plans.
It's a pity there is no such sea anywhere else (

yes, sorry, we were 2 times, 2007 in Savoy, in 2009 in Sierra, the beach and the sea are wonderful, it’s a shame to tears if we stay without the sea, we eat from 12.12. Does anyone know if there is a net in the sea on the beaches of Sierra-Savoie? well, after all, rara74 already wrote about the shark in December 2009, we really were in November. But we’ll go anyway, we’ll breathe sea air ... SORRY!!!!!!

More recently, explosions rumbled in Taba and Dahab, divers disappeared in Marsa Alam, buses overturned on highways, people disappeared on Mount Moses ... And the shooting of a group of tourists in Luxor, after which for 20 years all buses traveled only with an escort. And the assassination of President Anwar Sadat right on the government podium.
And what, who stopped it?
Or is it somehow outside the scope of statistical accidents in your home country?
Sad, tragic, incomprehensible. But not drastically. Very soon everything will be back to normal.
An example - many tourists have decided that now they need to fly to Hurghada. Very logical!!!

Hotline, I believe you.
Moreover, I think that everything will be exactly like this. Because most of us believe that all this can happen to anyone, but not to him.

We arrived yesterday from Sierra. For 10 days we swam for 2 days, AFTER THE FIRST ATTACKS, when the beaches were dug up. When the beaches were closed for the second time, our husbands were in the water. We were nervous while they were sailing on the pontoon. If we knew that the attack would happen again, then, undoubtedly, we would not have climbed into the water. The tourists were arguing with the rescuers, they almost got into a fight. , not enough. From the water in the pool on the second day the skin became dry. Bleach in the water to the point of dope. In the last 2 days (December 9 and 10) we floundered at the water's edge, and the husbands stood and watched the sea. It's a shame that we didn't swim to our heart's content, because the water is simply magnificent.
