THE SUDAN …
The Democratic Republic of Sudan is the largest country in Africa (more than 2.500.000 sq. km) with a population of around 28 million. Sudan has a length of more than 2,000 km (4°-23° latitude north) spreading from the Nubian Desert to the Equatorial forests of Kenya, Uganda and Zaire. Khartoum, the capital of Sudan, is situated on the confluence of the Blue Nile and White Nile which join together to form The Nile. It has a population of around 4 million. The main religion of Sudan is Muslim which makes up 70% of the population, the other 30% being mainly Christian. The weather in Sudan is hot so come prepared! Plenty of suntan lotion is needed. The summer temperatures often reach 50.c with the winter temperatures dropping to a very pleasant 25.c. Port Sudan is an hours flight away from Khartoum on a latitude of 19 degrees North. It is a very typical Sudanese fishing village with a lot of character. The Sudanese coast is about 400 miles long and lies on the Red Sea between Egypt and Eritrea.

	… AND ITS SEA The Sudanese sea is simply the most beautiful in the world! When you compare it to the underwater hustle and bustle of Egypt or even the murky green waters of Eritrea and Yemen, you can be guaranteed that Sudan is one of the few places left in the world that remains untouched by man. No dive site is crowded, the visibility is still crystal clear, the reefs undamaged and the marine life is prolific. The water temperatures range from 23-26. c in the winter to a warm 30. c in the summer. Back
