Best Red Sea marine life guide ever,
This review is from: Coral Reef Guide Red Sea: The Definitive Guide to Over 1200 Species of Underwater Life (Paperback)
Simply put, this is the best guide to the marine life of the Red Sea available today. Great images, reliable identification, clear and interesting texts, enormous scope, handy size, reasonable price - what more could one ask? Divers and u/w photographers planning to visit this specific area cannot do without it - one of its authors, Robert Myers, has also produced another landmark in area-specific marine life guidebooks, the incredibly complete Micronesian Reef Fishes.
