CDWS update: December 15, 2010
22:00
On December 14, 2010 CDWS received Governor's Decree No. 357 - 2010 related to the opening of some beaches and some sea excursions in Sharm El Sheikh.
This decree has caused a lot of confusion and, as a result, CDWS Chairman Mr. Hesham Gabr, requested a meeting tonight with the Governor of South Sinai and the Egyptian Coast Guard to get some clarification for CDWS members on what activities are allowed and what are not.
As a result of this meeting, CDWS is now able to confirm that the Governor has ordered the following:
: For certified divers with 50 dives or more:
Diving is allowed in all sites, including coastal ones.
B: For certified divers with less than 50 dives:
Diving is allowed where there are piers.
Drift diving is not allowed.
The area north of Naama Bay to Ras Nasrani remains closed to this category of diver - until 12/21/2010
C: for beginners,
courses and training
Diving is allowed only in the following areas (valid until 12/21/2010)
Sharm El Maya
Naama Bay
Sharks Bay (offshore only)
South and North Lagoon in Tiran
Nabq Bay
D:

D: other divers
For advanced divers with 50 dives or more, the same rules apply.
For advanced divers with less than 50 dives, the same rules as category B.
Rescue training is temporarily not allowed due to the following reasons:
to avoid wasting time spent on mastery.
so as not to cause panic among tourists due to the simulated situation, the behavior of the diver as a victim.
E: with mask and snorkel
Boat excursions with a mask and snorkel are allowed only in all areas of Tiran Island.
Snorkelling is not allowed in open waters (drift). Other areas are still closed - until 12/21/2010
F: Glass bottom boats and submarines operate as usual.
G: Banana, tubes and water skis
Bananas, snorkels and water skiing remain prohibited until further notice.
A copy of the order will be emailed as soon as our office receives it tomorrow, Thursday 16 December.
The CDWS will keep members updated as soon as we receive further word from the Governor.

What guide will "enlighten" at a loss ???
аватар eniska
I followed your links, it's a nightmare. Why are they chasing her and not killing her? They are doing stupid things. I am not an ordinary snork diver, just like you, and I was interested in the opportunity to swim on hotel beaches. And here, I see, only a shark swims :((
аватар jabetta
So, now to kill all the sharks?
аватар eniska
No, only those who swim inside the beach and wait for tourists. Follow the link and see how this shark splashes inside the buoys on the beach.
аватар papa74
Or maybe there was a provocation?
They poured blood, threw meat from the yacht under the shore ...
And then Egypt beat sales records, maybe it was unprofitable for someone?
аватар jabetta
Until the initial reason for their appearance in the water area is resolved, they will come and come (the fact that sharks are found in the Red Sea is no secret to anyone). And the fact that there is such a reason is a fact and they are silent about it.
аватар jabetta
To papa74: I agree with you - this is one of the versions. Another version that takes place is that one of the hotels (or maybe not one) dumps food waste directly into the sea. Two years ago, when we were vacationing in the Continental, we saw pipes that go straight into the sea from the hotel - the question is, why?
аватар eniska
It would be fine if they were silent, but they did something, and they only talk about conversations ...
аватар eniska
In House Beach, I also noticed such a pipe (it was in 2006) that goes into the sea. Apparently, hotels dump waste a long time ago, but they sailed now. I discard this version. devices that make sharks aggressive. Perhaps envious people "dropped" such a device near Sharm, go find it at a depth of 40 meters.
аватар jabetta
The pipes may have started a long time ago, but every year there are more and more hotels, and there are fewer and fewer fish in the sea. Sharks need to feed.
аватар papa74
My last year's version with food by dive guides.
For a show with sharks, divers are willing to pay more than a simple dive and you don’t need to go to Mars ...
аватар jabetta
And this is a very real version. But the guides have been doing this for a long time, too, why did the surge in attacks only now occur?
аватар papa74
Rumors have reached the sharks that they feed in Sharm ...
аватар jabetta
That's why all versions have the right to life. I hope that this "epidemic" will not spread to other resorts and will be where to go for beauty.
аватар Karina-Mango
Indeed, the installation of nets has begun, and mainly in those hotels where shark attacks have already been committed on a person. Now there is an order from the Ministry of Tourism that all hotels are fenced off with a net, but of course this will take time. Swimming restrictions apply for 60 days from December 1....
аватар eniska
And then it will be possible to call hotels with a grid by name?
аватар Karina-Mango
yes, as soon as I scout the situation, whoever has already finished saving the reputation and tourists, I will immediately write ...

At the moment there are nets at Terazin 1 and 2, Hotel 4 seasons, Hyatt installed, Savoy and Siera, Helnan Marina beach.
аватар jonik-kiev
There is no life on the terazine)) there are so many boats and mud that in the garbage pit, where to swim there, there are of course lovers, they say they were brought there and there is no other beach. That is the largest swamp that is in Sharm
аватар Karina-Mango
A swamp, but with a net, so there is no life ... Tarazina is a hangout, a beach party, and not a place for swimming, that's what it's all about .... Do you think they will put nets and there will be life near the coast? Not a single fish, if only very small ones ...
аватар walrus
Over the past day, 736 road accidents were registered in Ukraine, in which 12 people died and 87 were injured.
From this grid will not save.
EVERYONE IS USED
аватар Karina-Mango
that's for sure, shark attacks are rare compared to accidents and plane crashes, but still, I think that every hotel should take care of its guests...
аватар walrus
THE SEA WILL NOT BE A ZOO!
аватар papa74
"At the moment there are grids .... Savoy"
I wonder how? look at the depths...

аватар Karina-Mango
So you directly think the nets will be placed 20 meters from the shore, the nets are placed in front of the canyon, in front of the place where the cliff begins .. it may be 3 meters from the shore. Pantone is not yet allowed to use ...
аватар Karina-Mango
to papa74: about the nets in Savoy, this is the information of the hotel itself... I don't invent anything myself
