When it comes to adventurous places around the world, one word tends to sum up the African country of Djibouti: unknown. Aside from the hidden gems within it, there are very few people who could point it out on a world map, much less spell it. Nevertheless, Djibouti proves the old maxim that good things come in small packages-and in Red Sea Giants, Shane O unwraps as many of the country's packages as he can. In his quest for wildlife on land, Shane finds some of the geological wonders that Djibouti quietly flaunts. Then, in his quest for marine life in Djibouti's pristine waters, Shane O fulfills his lifelong dream of diving with whale sharks.
