| VIPONE ITINERARY / Ras Mohamed |
 |
This is the peninsula on the southern tip of the Sinai and is unique with its very deep waters, the reefs heading vertically down from the surface. Being this is the point where the waters of the Gulf of Aquaba and Gulf of Suez meet, the currents here are unpredictable and can be very strong. This makes for some exciting drift dives for the experienced diver.
Governed by the National Park, preservation is taken very seriously at these sights, and as such the reefs are pristine and abundant with hundreds of varieties of fish and coral species.

Shark and Yolanda Reef is a very popular dive site, often described as one of the top ten dive sites in the world.
If you can cope with the summer heat, this site is spectacular from mid June to mid August when the fish are mating and schooling together in large groups out in the blue. You need an elastic band just to stop your bottom jaw from dropping! |
