Sharm El Sheikh, Red Sea and Middle East
Sharm El Sheik in the Red Sea offers world class dive sites such as Ras Mohammed and famous wrecks including the SS Thistlegorm. Sharm lies on the southern tip of the Sinai peninsular and has become a large cosmopolitan, bustling and vibrant town, in huge contrast to the fishing village it was more than 10 years ago.
Diving
Boat diving and snorkelling to all dive sites are available which includesv local sites, Straits of Tiran and Ras Mohammed National Park. Naama Bay has a gently sloping sandy bottom with coral pinnacles, sea grass and plenty of marine life which make it ideal for training. Wreck diving excursions to SS Dunraven and World War II Merchant ship the SS Thistlegorm and are available and depart from the Sharm El Sheikh jetty. You can combine a mini liveaboard and hotel stay in Shark El Sheik to get the best of both worlds.
