1. Ras Mohammed (parc national)
   Ras Mohammed sits at the southern tip of the Sinai peninsula, where the Gulf of Aqaba and the Gulf of Suez meet.
2. Naama Bay
   Naama Bay is the lively heart of Sharm el-Sheikh: a wide bay lined with beaches, cafés and hotels, with a resort-town energy that contrasts with the calm of the Red Sea water.

   St.
4. Tiran (plongée)
   The Strait of Tiran, between Tiran Island and the Sinai coast, is one of the major dive sites of the Red Sea.
5. Old Market (Sharm El Maya)
   This is where you can best feel the everyday life of Sharm el-Sheikh, away from the resort strips of the coast.
6. Dahab & Blue Hole (excursion)
   The Blue Hole is a sinkhole in the reef, edged by cliffs, where the shallow turquoise water suddenly drops to more than a hundred metres of deep blue.
7. Shark's Bay
   Shark's Bay is a small sheltered bay south of Sharm el-Sheikh, where the desert meets clear turquoise water.
