Ras Mohammed is the National Park of South Sinai and located on the very tip of the Sinai Penninsula, it probably represents some of the most famous dive sites not only in the Red Sea but the world. 800 metre deep reef walls and pounding current on one hand, and on the other, some of the most beautiful coral gardens you can imagine. The seas around the point are very rich in plankton and other foods giving tremendous growth of stony and soft corals which in turn attracts large schools of reef and pelagic fish. The easy food source in turn attracts barracuda, jackfish, tuna and shark. The divesites of Ras Mohammed. |

As if on a string going from Tiran Island to the Sinai Coast, 4 reefs are positioned one after the other. The 4 reefs, Gordon, Thomas, Woodhouse and Jackson, are rich on current, corals and fish.
