Excursions from Sharm El Sheikh
| Ras Mohamed National park – Half day tour |
Ref: WASSH/01 |
Ras Mohamed national park is 30 km south of Sharm El Sheikh. Ras Mohamed has an extraordinary beauty and is the most interesting site in Sinai. It is the point where two different water masses are coming together, the salty water from the Gulf of Suez and the less salty from the Gulf of Aqaba, as a result 1.000 species of tropical fish and more than 170 species of corals as well as sponges and gorgonians are found. Beyond any doubt Ras Mohamed is an amazing site to dive and snorkel. |
