Where the Gulf of Aqaba meets the Gulf of Suez, Ras Mohammed National Park drops from coral gardens into thousand-metre blue. Cousteau called it one of the world's great reefs; the fish life at Yolanda and Shark Reef still proves him right. Two or three guided snorkeling stops, gear included.
Midday, the boat noses onto White Island — a bare white sandbar that exists only at low tide, ringed by impossible turquoise. Lunch is served on board as Sinai's mountains stand behind.
Bring your passport — the park is a border zone and IDs are checked at the marina.
Ras Mohammed is another planetVisibility 25m+, walls of coral, and the White Island sandbar is surreal. Well-run boat, good lunch.
