White Island & Ras Mohammed Boat Trip with Diving or Snorkeling
A full day on the water exploring two of the Red Sea's most celebrated marine destinations.
This White Island and Ras Mohammed boat trip combines two iconic Red Sea locations into a single VIP full-day experience, offering guests the choice between introductory diving or snorkeling amid some of Egypt's most breathtaking underwater scenery.
Departing from Sharm El Sheikh with a convenient hotel pickup, the journey takes you first to the vivid coral gardens of Ras Mohammed National Park, a protected marine reserve where currents collide to create extraordinary concentrations of marine life.

This tour operates from Sharm El Sheikh, located at the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula in Egypt, and visits two distinct marine destinations in the Red Sea. Ras Mohammed National Park, established in 1983, is Egypt's first national park and is internationally recognized for its exceptional biodiversity, including hard and soft coral formations, reef sharks, and large pelagic fish species. White Island, also known as Tiran Island's adjacent sandbar area, is celebrated for its shallow turquoise lagoon and pristine sand banks. The Red Sea is consistently ranked among the world's top diving destinations due to its warm, clear waters and year-round visibility. Sharm El Sheikh serves as the primary gateway to these sites, with the marina providing easy access to both locations within a single day trip.
