Looking out from the balcony of a house and finding yourself witnessing the birth of a baby in the sea is not something that happens every day!

As a matter of fact, the girl who happened to witness this curious event did not miss the opportunity to take some photographs.

The incident occurred in Dahab, in the waters of the Gulf of Aqaba (Egypt), and it featured a family of Russian tourists who had planned the event to satisfy this very unusual but explicit request of the mother-to-be.

The whole family, apparently all of them were Russians, gathered on the beach to take some pictures and start their lives together as a family of four. Everything seems to take place in absolute calm and tranquility.
