More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
Sunlight sprawls across the Red Sea as the boat slips away from Sharm El Sheikh harbor, the wake slicing like a bright ribbon toward the southern tip of Sinai. Salt and heat ride the breeze; the sea seems to dare you to jump in. Guests drift between shallow coral gardens and deeper blue gutters that hold sudden schools of fish.

History
Ras Muhammad was designated Egypt’s first marine protected area in 1983 to guard its coral reefs and coastal wetlands that lie along ancient Red Sea trade routes.
Conservation
The reserve faces threats from warming waters and human pressure; visitors are urged to avoid contact with coral, use reef-safe sunscreen, and follow guide instructions to minimize impact.
Reserve your spot on the Ras Muhammad by boat with lunch today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Use reef-safe sunscreen
Apply biodegradable, reef-safe sunscreen before boarding to protect corals and reduce reapplication while snorkeling.
Bring a lightweight cover-up
A long-sleeve rash guard or thin shirt shields skin during prolonged sun exposure while keeping you cool.
Secure snorkeling gear fit
Test mask and snorkel fit before entering the water; a leaking mask will ruin the first twenty minutes of your snorkel.
Hydrate and pace swims
Drink water between snorkel sessions and don’t push long continuous swims—currents and fatigue come on fast.
Mask, snorkel, fins
Properly fitted gear improves visibility and conserves energy while exploring reefs.
Rash guard or swim shirt
Protects from sun and light abrasion when snorkeling around coral.
