The final
day began with a dive at Dolphin House - a site where at certain times of the
day dolphins swim by. Sadly, today was not one of those days. As it was it was
a pretty dull reef dive only enlivened by some of the Kingmaker's underwater antics.
He signalled me over and pointed to a whole. We watched for a minute and my suspicions grew. Some more divers came over to see what we were looking at. We watched for a few minutes more. I began to realise that there was in fact nothing to see and that he was just 'yanking my chain'. Still we watched and still more divers gathered. We laughed and swam off.
Our last
dive of the trip was the wreck of the El Minya, a minesweeper sunk by Israeli
jets during the 7 Day War. The briefing
had also indicated the presence of a second wreck off the stern of a fishing trawler.
The trawler was actually the better of the two wrecks despite being a fraction
of the size and boasted considerably more life. It was a good way to end the
trip.
