Ras Mohammed Nature Reserve : info and guided tour

Introduction to Ras Mohamed Nature Reserve

Ras Mohamed Nature Reserve is a national park located at the southern tip of Sinai, near Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt. Created to protect an exceptional marine and terrestrial environment, this reserve is best known for its lagoons, coral reefs, and desert landscapes that slope down to the Red Sea.

The site occupies a strategic point where the Gulf of Aqaba and the Gulf of Suez meet. This location explains the richness of its seabed, which is highly prized for diving and snorkeling. The reserve also features cliffs, sheltered bays, and coastal areas with strikingly contrasting colors.

Ras Mohamed is famous for the quality of its coral reefs, among the most renowned in the Red Sea. Visitors discover remarkable biodiversity there, with many tropical fish, as well as birds and flora adapted to arid conditions. The place is appealing both for its nature and for its views over the turquoise water.

Beyond its ecological value, the reserve has become a symbol of the Sharm El Sheikh coastline. The iconic sights to see include coral areas, wild beaches, viewpoints over the two gulfs, and the rocky relief of Sinai, which give the site a very distinctive identity.
