Diver's Notes

Buceo en Shark & Yolanda, en Ras mohammed. Una inmersión de las mejores, muchos peces grandes en el azul hemos salido del arrecife, porque no había nada de corriente. Y la parte del coral un jardín espectacular, hemos ido buceando entre pináculos y hemos llegado al Yolanda con sus water llenos de vida.
