Diveheads: information from divers like you

Posted: Thursday, March 20, 2008 - 10:02

Here we are then! From today Diveheads is online: a website with information about dive holiday destinations. Just like all the others? No, not at all. Diveheads is not trying to sell you a holiday. And we don’t advertise for diving holiday companies. On Diveheads we offer a platform for divers to share their travel experiences. Here you will find unembellished information, from divers like you.

Contributions
Currently, we offer around 50 descriptions of destinations world wide. From Ponta do Ouro, via Cozumel to L’Estartit. Have you been somewhere? Let your opinion be heard and place a response. Do you think you know more or better? Or do you know of a place we don’t yet have? Write a description and email it to info@diveheads.com or use the form in the tab to the right.

We will keep on developing
Diveheads is online, but we are a long way from finished. The design, the techniques, the texts: all the kinks will be ironed out in days to come. And we will continue to develop this website. For example, we will be adding climate info and dive schools in the not too distant future. Keep an eye on Diveheads!

About El Quseir
In the village of El Quseir, which dates back to the 10th century, you can still get a feeling for the traditional Egyptian fishing way of life. Once it was the largest shipping port of the Red Sea, the beginning for expeditions to Yemen and Somalia. In the village centre stands an old fort dating back to the Ottoman Empire. Spread all along the coast are now a handful of hotels and resorts. Approximately 100km north of El Quseir is an airport to which a few airlines fly.

Diving El Quseir
Diving around El Quseir is comparable to that of Marsa Alam. The area was, until quite recently, only accessible by live-aboards. Directly off the coast lies 100km of fringe reefs. By boat you can reach Elphinstone Reef and the dive spots of Safaga.
