Marsa Murein is a very attractive lagoon near Marsa Alam International Airport, Red Sea, Egypt.

Marsa Murein

This was the last diving for the 2009, and organized by SeaWorld diving, and we, as you can bet, went to diving with them, and if you hear me… it’s worth a while!

A great Acropora sp… we can see hes polyps and obviously a great health…

Another Montipora with Acropora around it. It’s possible to see some colours because we are clore enough for my flash, but we are 20 meters depth…

As we are not so close to corals it’s impossibile to have the right colours, my flash was too tiny, but this coral was very huge (in the reality world it was almost dark red…) .
