Ras Muhammad National Park

Ras Muhammad Nature Reserve is renowned for its rich underwater ecosystem and expansive coral-covered reefs, making it one of the premier destinations globally for snorkeling and swimming excursions. Visitors can experience these activities through our Ras Mohammed Tour. On land, the national park supports a variety of wildlife, including gazelles and diverse bird species.

The pristine waters of this area are home to over a thousand vibrant fish species, including sharks and other remarkable creatures, presenting an unmissable opportunity for exploration.

While diving in this stunning park is possible, the number of boats permitted is restricted. In response to the growing influx of tourists wishing to experience Ras Muhammad National Park in South Sinai, local authorities have implemented measures to protect the environment by limiting daily access. Consequently, no hotels are established, and the number of diving vessels is controlled. It is advisable to secure your Ras Mohamed boat trip from Sharm El Sheikh Tours in advance, as we offer a diverse range of day tours from Sharm el-Sheikh, including additional snorkeling opportunities at Tiran Island and desert safari adventures in Sinai. The remarkable tourism experiences in Egypt are brought to you by Cairo Top Tours through our dedicated agents, both in the field and online.
