Fast Boat Trips to S.S. Thistlegorm Wreck

Look At this!! Fast Boat Trips to...

S.S. Thistlegorm trip (World War 11 Wreck)

This has to be among the greatest wreck dives in the world S.S. Thistlegorm was a British merchant ship on secondment during world war two and was sunk by the Luftwaffe near Sha’ab Ali in the North Western area of The Red Sea in The Gulf of Suez.

It’s cargo of guns, Bedford trucks, BSA motor bikes, aeroplane wings, steam engine and tenders and so much more is still there to be seenOne of the complaints in the past of this trip was it as so far away you had to get up at 4.00 a.m. to make the long journey. Or live on a boat for a week to get out to it.

Now we use a fast ex safari boat working on daily trips, that only takesapproximately two hours so we leave harbour at 7.00 am and get you back at the normal time. A far more civilised trip when you’re on your holiday.

Elite Diving - Red Sea TV debut

Elite Diving on TV ...

Alun and Moyra your Elite Diving hosts at Sharm El Sheikh have been featured in a TV reality programme.

The programme was featured on S4C which is the Welsh channel 4 (Has Alun ever told you he’s Welsh?) over Christmas 2007 and an Omnibus version were shown on New Years day 2008.
The programme was about a well known (in Wales) Welsh TV presenter Dai Jones trying to overcome his fear of water and learning to swim. His good friend Wil accompanied him on the trip.

The programme is called Dai Yn Y Dwr (David in the water) and Alun was called on to teach Dai as the programme was for Welsh speakers and Alun in his distant past had an education in Welsh.

The film crew were in Sharm for a whole week and were filming all day every day with a gruelling schedule. If not in the pool or a beach where the swimming lessons took place, they also were filming Dai and his side kick Wil out and about in and around Sharm. They even took a trip up to Dahab to experience the vast contrast of the surroundings there.

The finished programme itself was charged with emotions, ups and downs, and it made compelling viewing.

Alun and Moyra said they had great fun being a part of this production and would be very happy to do a similar venture again.

Here are some photos on locations while filming.
