Top 10 Dive Sites in the World:
-

There are another 3 dive sites in Sipadan which have emerged as top 100 - Hanging Garden, South Point and Turtle Tavern. ( 52,69 & 76). Pulau Layang-Layang, The Point, was ranked 44.
The Eygyptian Red Sea appears to be the best site with many of its dive sites emerging above top 50.
Egypt’s Red Sea coast runs from the Gulf of Suez to the Sudanese border. Its mineral-rich red mountain ranges inspired the mariners of antiquity to name the sea Mare Rostrum, or the Red Sea.

[…] 9 more dives to reach 100. To make it a memorable 100th dive, maybe I should dive at Sipadan or another overseas point, The Red Sea, maybe! […]
