Snorkelling at Ras Mohammed

Snorkelling is a fun and easy activity that can be enjoyed by everyone in the family. It is the perfect way to explore the extraordinary beauty of the underwater world safely and easily. The video below is just a taster of what awaits you !!

Snorkelling in Ras Mohammed is an ideal location because of the huge species diversity as it is where both the Gulf of Suez and the Gulf of Aqaba meet, creating a rich environment, capable of supporting a highly developed ecosystem. Ras Mohammed snorkelling contains many beautiful features, including ancient underwater caves that were formed by earthquakes, and now provide shelter to a whole host of large and small creatures.

Ras Mohammed National Park is located just off the southernmost point of the Sinai Peninsula, within a Marine National Park. It was established in 1983 and sought to protect against damaging fishing methods and other harmful human activities, spanning an area of 480 square kilometres. The sturdy endeavours of the local communities implementing new policy and policing the waters has allowed for a strong resurgence in the reef's health. The result is one of the best snorkel sites in the Red Sea, just 12 km from Sharm el-Sheikh. The healthy marine life has in turn supported a vibrant bird community, and is now the site of magnificent bird migrations.
