That said there are still some great spots in Sharm, but I would not go there in August due to the Europeans .</font>
Normally I would agree with this, but at this time, for some reason a lot of people are staying away and the diving is supposed to be great (ie 1/2 boats at Thistlegorm, instead of 15 !).

Re: East Africa, I was in Zanzibar last October, great diving, quiet, great coral but not too many big pelagics (sp - the big stuff, sharks, rays, etc). August is a good time to go too - tack a week in Pemba onto a safari.

cheers
