Insider's View

Sharm El Sheikh Diving is plentiful with Ras Mohammed National Park only an hour sail away. This park poses some encapsulating diving including a great dive, Shark to Yolanda, the Yolanda being a cargo ship that shed its load of toilets at it sank in less than 18 metres of water. The park has huge drop offs to more than 1km deep which are generally drift dives at each divers safe depth limit, allowing all levels of divers to enjoy the site.

The Straights of Tiran are only 1 hour from Sharm and consist of 4 underwater islands dived on the south side to avoid the strong currents that exist in the area, these currents bring nutrients to the reefs so the coral is in excellent condition. These drift dives are a must when diving in Sharm.

There are also wrecks to be seen from this port. The Thistlegorm is a day trip albeit an early start and sometimes a bumpy ride to get to its worth it. Lying in 30 metres of water and still well intact this 120 metre cargo ship covered with flora and fauna is a world class dive. The best wreck diving in Egypt will be achieved through a liveaboard holiday.
