Sharm El Sheikh is located on the furthermost tip of the Sinai Peninsula. The beach resort lies nestled in a beautiful bay on the Gulf of Aqaba, the richest snorkeling and diving reef area in the world. Apart from its water sports facilities, diving and snorkeling pleasures, Sharm El Sheikh can serve as a base for day trips to Ras Mohamen, a protected Nature Reserve boasting an amazing variety of sea fauna, as well as to St. Catherine's Monastery and Mount Sinai, where Moses received the ten Commandments. Staying in Sharm El Sheikh is an experience not easily forgotten - it is different from anything Egypt has to offer in the way of Nature's beauty.
