Local in Sharm El Sheikh
Sharm El Sheikh, commonly abbreviated to Sharm, is one of the most charming cities in Egypt, located between the Gulf of Aqaba, the Gulf of Suez, and “the open body” of the Red Sea.
At the tip of the Sinai Peninsula, those three different waters meet, resulting in a rich environment that feeds currents suitable for the optimal growth of corals and marine life.
Often larger marine life can be seen, large fish, sharks, mantas, whale sharks, turtles and even dolphins can be spotted playing in the bow waves of the boats.
Due to the prominent geographical location of the coastal city of Sharm El Sheikh, the beauty of the Sinai Mountains adorns the setting for a perfect background and extraordinary marine life, making it one of the best diving environments in the world.
About Local Dive sites in Sharm El Sheikh
Along the coast of the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula you find many more dive sites that require less experience than the Straits of Tiran or Ras Mohammed dive sites, yet are still extremely rich in corals and marine life. These are, from north to south: Ras Ghamila, Ras Nasrani, Ras Bob, White Knight, Far Garden, Middle Garden, Near Garden, Sodfa, Tower, Amphoras, Turtle Bay, Paradise, Ras Umm Sid, Temple and Ras Katy.
These dive sites with their sandy plateaus and pinnacles but with the absence of strong currents are very well suited for beginners or for courses. Yet they are still very attractive for experienced divers due to the beauty of the dive sites and because of the big fish like mantas or whale sharks that can be seen there now and then during the summer months.
