Activities in Eritrea
Lonely Planet review for Asmara Piscina
Fancy a dip? The 1930s Asmara Piscina will fit the bill. Even if you don't feel like splashing about, it's worth taking a peek inside this modernist building.

Lonely Planet review for Dahlak Sea Touring
If you want to go on a fishing trip, you can hire a boat and a captain and set off. A half-day's rental of a small boat in the Bay of Massawa costs about around nfa2000 for one to three people, including the boat captain. Contact Dahlak Sea Touring .

Lonely Planet review for Eritrea Diving Center
If you want to learn to dive, you can contact the Eritrea Diving Center on Taulud Island. Ask for the helpful English-speaking Nasreddin Osman, who can organise the usual Professional Association of Diving Instructors (PADI) courses. Open-water courses (US$360) can usually be completed in four days. For those who just want a taste of Eritrea's underwater world, there's a 'Scuba Diving Introduction' for US$50, which runs over a half day.
Lonely Planet review for Green Island
Green Island is 10 to 20 minutes from Massawa and is the most accessible place for decent snorkelling and tolerable beaches. To be frank, it ain't Bora Bora, but it can make an excellent retreat if you need some hush and a place to rest your sightseeing-abused feet. Dahlak Hotel organises day trips to Green Island (around nfa600 per boat).

Introducing The Eritrean Red Sea Coast
Luckily, the Eritrean coast has remained wild, pristine and untouched - nothing comparable with, say, Egypt. There's a lot to love about this area: hundreds of kilometres of luscious coastline, a historic city and a fantastic archipelago. Discover this region before everyone else does.
