Discover Sharm El Shiekh

Discover Sharm El Shiekh
Sharm El Sheikh is located on the southern point of the Sinai peninsula and, although surrounded by desert mountains, looks out over one of the richest seas in the world.

The area extends for around 30 kilometers because the city has continued to develop populating the nearby bays. Na'ama Bay is the most famous bay and is where most of the meeting places are located such as ethnic restaurants, pubs, bars and nightclubs. Life at Sharm is therefore very lively and full of interesting proposals not only related to diving.

The city of Sharm El Sheikh has successfully conserved the charm of the traditions allowing you to immerse yourself in the country's most typical reality. The diving in Sharm-el-Sheikh is some of the best in the world. The corals and the fish life astound every visitor to the area. The corals come to within 1 meter from the surface and then continue down into the depths. The fish life is all over the reef, allowing visitors the opportunity to view them from the surface. Most of the fish life is the smaller reef dwellers as opposed to the pelagic life, but if you look into the blue the big stuff is there.
The diving is from the Straits of Tiran in the North to Ras Mohamed in the South. With regular trips round into the Gulf of Suez to visit the wrecks of Dunraven, Thistlegorm and the area of Abu Nuas
All the diving in the area is by boats which are about 20m. These are designed for divers, with a large dive deck and easy access in to the water and then a ladder out. There is a sun deck upstairs which has a shaded area and a area where you can soak up the rays (careful you don't get burnt!!).

The boats all have at least 1 toilet, usually more and a saloon area with tables and comfortable seats. This is where the crew serve lunch, which is usually a very good buffet style lunch.  join our diving center
