Rough Guides recommends Emperor Divers as the dive centre of choice when visiting the Red Sea...here's an extract that gives you an insight into the wonders that await you:
For snorkellers and scuba divers the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aqaba are heaven-sent destinations. Thanks to their relative isolation from the Indian Ocean, they harbour a high concentration of marine species found nowhere else on the planet, as well as many more common creatures, no less fascinating. Furthermore, the stable climate, shallow tides and exceptionally high salinity of the Red Sea provide perfect conditions for unusually brilliant corals and sponges to flourish - a revelation if you have previously snorkelled in such places as Hawaii or the Caribbean, whose reefs will ever after seem dull by comparison."
