Dive Sites in Sharm El SheikhThe Local Dive Sites (Sharm El Sheikh)
Along the southern tip of Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula lies Sharm El Sheikh, home to many local dive sites that require less experience than the Straits of Tiran or Ras Mohammed, yet remain exceptionally rich in coral and marine life. 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.
With sandy plateaus and typically minimal drop-offs or strong currents, these sites are well suited to beginners and training courses. They’re still highly rewarding for experienced divers thanks to beautiful reefs and occasional encounters with larger marine life, including manta rays and whale sharks.
