You step off the boat into sunlight and salt: the water here is the color of a cooled flame, clear enough to read the reef’s contours before you even surface. The morning ride from Sharm El Sheikh hums with oil-and-salt comfort; the crew points toward a ragged coastline where sheer limestone meets the sea. Ras Mohamed’s drop-offs line up like pages of geological history, then White Island appears — a coral-sand bank ringed by turquoise shallows that dare you to wade.
