Ras Ghozlani
This presents a gentle but stunning drift dive that drops down onto a gentle sloping plateau at around 18 meters with some very impressive table corals awash with orange clouds of Anthias. Jacks and barracuda hunt here amongst the schools of blue fusiliers. It is also home to many sea turtles and occasional manta rays.
This site lies at the mouth of Mersa Bereka, the large shallow bay that nearly separates Ras Muhammad itself from the Sinai mainland. The reef follows the shoreline at the bay's northern point: a sheer but shallow inshore wall gives way to a sloping, patchy reef face below about 15m (50ft).
Dives can be taken on the outside with the current running mainly from North to South or from the other side of the headland, inside Marsa Braika with the current running from west to east. Fish life is abundant all across the reef in a riot of scintillating color. This is possibly the nicest spot on the southern coast for small reef species.

National Parks
There are four national parks in the area, which equally strike with their beauty. They are: Ras Muhammad, Abu Galoum, St. Catherin National Park and Nabq National Park.

Horse Riding
Being in Sharm and not to try camel or horse riding is unacceptable. So, a visit to one of the local stables is absolutely a must. Omar Riding Club is one of them. But since it is located in the desert, booking is highly recommended, as not many taxis will agree to go there; and if they do, you will probably be overcharged, breaking your carefully planned budget. Booking, on the other hand, insures you get free transportation.
