Set sail from Sharm El Sheikh to the stunning White Island, part of Ras Mohammed National Park at the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula. You will cruise across the Red Sea on a comfortable yacht, stop for snorkeling at beautiful reef sites, and enjoy lunch onboard while taking in panoramic sea views.
White Island, often called the “Invisible Island,” appears only when the tide is low, creating a unique sandbank surrounded by turquoise waters. Between snorkeling stops and time on the island, you will discover vibrant coral reefs, tropical fish, and one of Egypt’s most protected marine environments — all with logistics and transport taken care of for you.
