The boat eases out of Sharm el‑Sheikh harbor at first light, and the Sinai wind carries salt across an expanse of blue that feels both wide and immediate. On deck you watch reefs rise like submerged ridgelines; the water below dares you to look closer. Stops are timed for tidal windows and visibility—two reef swims at Ras Mohammed’s protected gardens and a photo stop on the low, white sand of White Island.

History
Ras Mohammed was designated Egypt’s first national park in 1989 to protect unique reef systems at the meeting point of the Gulf of Suez and Gulf of Aqaba.
Conservation
The reef ecosystem is fragile—follow marked moorings, avoid touching coral, and use reef‑safe products; local operators support park fees that fund protection and monitoring.

Bring reef‑safe sunscreen
Apply reef‑safe sunscreen before boarding to protect coral; reapply sparingly and away from the water to avoid runoff.
Secure a well‑fitting mask
A personal snorkel mask prevents leaks and fogging—rental masks are available but can vary in fit.
Wear water shoes or fins
Water shoes protect feet when entering shallow sandbanks on White Island; fins help you swim the short distance from the boat to shore.
Hydrate and pace yourself
Carry a refillable bottle and drink between dives—boat decks can be hot and dehydration reduces comfort and safety.
Reef‑safe sunscreen
Protects both your skin and coral reefs from harmful chemicals.
