Is it true that the Aurora Cyrene Hotel does not have a rich underwater world?
Is it true that there is not a rich underwater world? The reviews write that they go snorkeling at the Baron Hotel or the Cyrene Grand Hotel. It is far? Does security pass?

Yes, that's right. If you need the underwater world, choose another hotel

We were in this hotel. Swim better go to the hotel Baron. It is not far. Security usually does not react in any way. As a last resort, pretend to leave and come back in a couple of hours. No one will remember you the next day.

Yes, the underwater world is normal on Aurora, as soon as you feed buns from the restaurant, a large number of fish swim up. My wife even swam with them and fed them by hand!!! And then something huge swept under the pontoons, we were told that it was a tuna.

shurix1979, but why feed the fish with buns from the restaurant? And then we wonder why sharks swim close to the shore and attack people.

And what, sharks are fed with buns? As far as I know, there are REEF sharks in the area of Sharm and Hurghada. which do not attack people. A dangerous shark for people, a white one, for example, is not found there. Rather, other types of fish pose a danger.

alex45, by the way, two of them lived under the pier, they can be seen either in the late afternoon, when it was forbidden to flatter into the water, or early in the morning. Around them, other small fish swam so cool!

shurix1979, such - what are they? I swam between reef sharks, of course I would not dare to come close to white ones! Maybe you can be more specific, because they even look different. When I was swimming, I saw barracudas, though small ones, zero attention to me. And feed the fish with bread? it's not their diet!
If you are talking about a photo of a fish, then this is a lionfish, on the fins of the fish there are poisonous needles in which neurotoxin can decently harm, up to and including death. Therefore, it is better not to touch fish, sea urchins, and corals in general.

alex45, yes, I meant the fish in the photo (lionfish. We lived under the pontoon, or maybe it seemed to me. But in the evening we watched them almost every day in the same place.
As for the buns, I'm not lying to you, the Egyptian guard showed us this himself and we fed them several times and ate them in two "cheeks".
IN, I just found pictures of lionfish, from my wife's phone.

shurix1979. It's sad that people live for today. Feeding fish attracts closer to the shore not only harmless fish, but also dangerous ones. For example, surgeon fish, if you are not afraid of sharks. :) If the fish are accustomed to the fact that they will be fed, they lose the ability to independently obtain food. Flour products in most cases lead, if not to death, then to painful suffering of fish. Well, about education about the need to maintain stability in the Red Sea ecosystem, google it. Fortunately, there is plenty of information.

alex45, so in 2010, for example, in Sharm they were attacked by: a long-finned shark - longimanus (exactly 3 cases) and a mako shark (1 case).

Okay, can someone tell me how many shark attacks have there been in the Sharm area? Probably less than the number of victims in the crash of a Russian airliner, not to mention car accidents. I cannot consider cases that tend to zero to be dangerous.
About surgeon fish! They do not perform operations with people, their spikes, sharp as a scalpel, are located near the tail and they need them to protect themselves from predators and fights among themselves for females. By the way, there are a lot of them even in shallow water. Lovely fish. Moray eel is also dangerous if you climb to it, otherwise it will not attack.
In general, of course, you need to be careful, otherwise you will get burns from the jellyfish, and get needles of sea urchins in your legs, and get hurt on the corals.
I still remember how on my first visit to Hurghada I swam across the reef, but there was a high tide, and another tourist at low tide tore off his belly on corals, and drove a dozen spines of sea urchins. The funny thing is that there were steps behind the reef nearby.
Be careful and have a good rest.

alex45, the crash of the Russian liner is a completely different story. 2010, during a shark attack in Sharm, one person died, 4 were injured. Moreover, they suffered quite seriously - with losses of the lower and upper limbs and torn wounds of soft tissues (depending on who and what). I am not saying not to go to Sharm, because, as they say, you can die from an icicle that has fallen on your head, but I simply urge you not to feed the fish. And you have a great dep.

Sorry, in Kyiv there are more victims per day than in your example.
Of course, it is not advisable to feed the fish, they get used to it. But it is interesting to feed Napoleon with a boiled egg, and this is a decent carcass! I wouldn't resist and he's harmless.

serna7081 Egypt is not the coast of South Africa or Australia or Florida where the danger from shark attacks is great, for all the time that Egypt has been accepting tourists in the hotels of Sharm, Hurghada, etc. there have been several shark attacks. This is nothing compared to the number of shark attacks, for example, off the coast of Australia and the United States. Knowing about this danger, tourists go to these countries and swim and do water sports.

millamilla, it's hard for you to live on constant betrayal when there is a pathological interest in completely strangers. Of course, don’t listen, feed the whole village of fish with buns for health, but then don’t cry: what bad hotel employees that they didn’t help my aunt to climb onto the pontoon after meeting with the shark.

So we know, no one was going to touch them)))
During the week we only fed 1-2 small buns a couple of times.
PS
