Look,forget all the “ Egypt owns it Saudi doesn’t” rubbish,whoever owns it no one can go there anyway. You cannot land on the island,it’s strictly forbidden and anyone who says they can take you there or has been there is either lying or the company they went with was breaking the law. You can visit the reefs of Tiran,but the island itself,no.

Came here for scubadiving. We did 3 dives and it was perfect. It was very clear , like diving in your own aquarium. Totally recommend it

Tiran Island: A Jewel in the Red Sea Crown Nestled at the entrance of the Strait of Tiran, where the azure waters of the Red Sea meet the Gulf of Aqaba, lies the enchanting Tiran Island. This sun-kissed gem, once administered by Egypt and now under Saudi Arabian sovereignty, beckons travelers with promises of adventure, marine wonders, and historical intrigue. A Maritime Crossroads Tiran Island’s strategic significance transcends its modest size—an area of approximately 80 square kilometers. It forms the narrowest section of the Strait of Tiran, a vital sea passage connecting the bustling port of Aqaba in Jordan to the vibrant city of Eilat in Israel. Here, ancient trade routes converged, and modern vessels sail, weaving a tapestry of commerce and culture. A Diver’s Paradise For scuba enthusiasts, Tiran Island is a sanctuary. Beneath its crystalline surface lies a kaleidoscope of marine life—vibrant corals, elusive seahorses, and schools of tropical fish. Dive into the embrace of the Red Sea, and you’ll encounter the Jackson Reef, the Woodhouse Reef, and the Thomas Reef—each a living canvas of color and movement. The currents dance, revealing shipwrecks and secrets from centuries past. The Ghosts of History Tiran Island’s past echoes through time. During the Suez Crisis, it briefly fell into Israeli hands, and from 1967 to 1982, it remained under Israeli control after the Six-Day War. The island’s sands have absorbed the footsteps of warriors, traders, and pilgrims—a silent witness to the ebb and flow of empires. A Playground for Water Adventurers Whether you’re snorkeling, windsurfing, or sailing, Tiran Island invites you to explore its shores. Glide over coral gardens, where parrotfish dart and angelfish pirouette. Feel the wind in your hair as you windsurf across the turquoise expanse. And when the sun dips below the horizon, gather around a beachside fire, sharing tales of the day’s exploits. Chisholm Point: Where Land Meets Sea At Chisholm Point, the island’s rocky cape, you’ll witness the union of earth and water. Here, the waves caress ancient stones, and seabirds wheel overhead. As the sun paints the sky in hues of gold and crimson, you’ll feel the pulse of nature—the heartbeat of Tiran Island. A Journey Through Sovereignty Tiran Island’s fate has been debated, its borders redrawn. In 2017, Egypt officially ceded sovereignty to Saudi Arabia, marking a new chapter in its storied history. Yet, as travelers step ashore, they sense that this island belongs to more than nations—it belongs to the tides, the winds, and the dreams of those who seek its shores. Practical Details Access: Boat excursions from Sharm El Sheikh offer a gateway to Tiran Island. Activities: Snorkel, dive, or simply bask in the sun. Remember: Respect the delicate ecosystem; leave only footprints. As the sun sets over Tiran Island, casting shadows on its ancient rocks, you’ll feel the pull of the sea—a timeless call to explore, to connect, and to cherish this jewel in the Red Sea’s crown. May the waves carry your wanderlust, and may Tiran Island forever enchant. 🌞🤿

The beauty of nature is indescribable

The Tiran cat named Tirannos has already dominated all the island. Made all the tourist scared and leave. But I liked the place it was very nice and had good snorkeling 🤿

80 km square island which is a part of Ras Mohammed National Park. At the first sight, you understand nobody lives here. Looks very lonely and it inspires you! There are daily boat trips from Sharm-El Sheikh. There are many snorkeling spots around the island. Most of the tours visit these spots. I asked if it's possible to camp there, but they told me it's prohibited and dangerous. Swimming to island, discovering the beaches and seeing this loneliness is amazing! I highly recommend to visit!

One of Egypt’s enjoyable Red sea islands.

Tiran Island in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt is the best island in Egypt, the underwater sea in this place is wonderful. Must every one love diving to visit this place. Anyone has even visited this place, has not completed many thing in his life. For diving lovers

Tiran and Sanafir Island full of sharks, Jillyfish, whirlpool and its the worst place for sea activity you can visit in the red sea. If you want to visit Egyptian shore on the red sea, I recommend to go Sharm Elsheikh.

Ras Mohammed National Park is the unique and best location for snorkeling and diving activities in the whole world. Highly recommended to visit because no similarty to its beauty anywhere else. You may go with travel agency or by rented car to enjoy the park site itself which full of lakes and greenery grounds or take boat for day trip including lunch and enjoy many stops for snorkeling and diving. Photos highlight both trips options.

I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Ras Mohamed Nature Reserve—an idyllic and untouched natural sanctuary. The immaculate surroundings and awe-inspiring landscapes created a truly rejuvenating experience. I strongly recommend immersing yourself in the lively marine life through activities like snorkeling or diving. Moreover, indulging in lunch at one of the tented spots heightened the overall delight, providing a charming pause with delectable dining choices. A definite must-visit for those who appreciate the wonders of nature!

It was really pretty and peaceful in afternoon when most toirists have already passed by :) Met few rays ner mangrove bushes having lunch ... just so so calm and peaceful place.

A gorgeous, peaceful place to check out when visiting Sharm. We rented a car and ended up having lunch at one the Bedouin tents and it was awesome. They served freshly caught fish with rice and salad. It was a very relaxing day.

It is a fantastic day out on the boat. The Egyptians really respect this national park and the beauty it gives to everyone. This time there were more boats and people than I have ever seen in 14 years, very popular ❤️

Ras Mohamed Natural Park, doesn’t really deserve the credit it has ( land side, boat trip is perfect 5⭐️) the place is not really organised as it should be, the beaches are not ready even for a wild beach, the guards will kick you out after 3 pm even they say it’s open till sunset and camping, many spots to stop by briefly to take pictures and move to the next, a lot of rubbish and plastic bags every where, the guidance system is not accurate to help you as self independent so you must hire a guide, I felt disappointed apart from the swimming by the Rad Mohamed Rock, I recommend for everyone don’t waste your time just have a boat trip snorkelling and diving in Ras Mohamed.

Definitely a must when visiting Sharm el Sheikh! Despite what you’re look for it has it all. From incredible mountain and water landscapes, rocky and sandy beaches, spots for diving or snorkeling, breathtaking panoramic spots. You could either visit it for a quick tour or plan for an entire day where you get to visit the diverse features and spots, chill by the beach, take a dip and watch the red sea reef and underwater word, then end it with a Bbq lunch; the nature reserve opens till 5pm or you can arrange to camp there for the night.

We visited the park with a private taxi I cost us aproximatly 40 euros pp..we left at 9 and were back at 15h...the park is beatifull..several fotostops and places to swim and snorkel

The Ras Mohammed National Park is definitely worth to visit. The Gate of Allah is very impressive and the Earthquake crack also goes down quite low. The mangroves with the thick salt crust were also very beautiful. In addition to snorkeling, you can also swim in the Lake of the Wish. Very great park and I will stay there next time over the night.

A wonderful boat trip, Mustafa is great, friendly and nice, with an excellent ship crew, a wonderful experience on the boat, we are very satisfied

Ras Mohamed is a National Park for its marine life / environments ... don't go via a land excursion! I was here in the 1990s and the boat traffic and people visiting has exploded in number since. Best to visit via a boat trip, which will usually offer two stops at reef sites plus a stop at White sands (an atoll - strip of sand on a reef just above water). Your boat will likely have a mix of groups, some scuba divers (from introductory dive to advanced, etc.), snorkellers & white sands visitors, etc. Leaving port, it takes a while (~45/60 minutes, depending on 1st stop) to get to the 1st reef. Divvers will be 1st to set up & leave the boat (not including the introductory, try-dive, divers) then those snorkellers & swimmers. The time at the stop will be governed by the divers; eg, depending on how many try-dive divers there are, the instructors will take 1, do the shallow dive take them back to the boat and repeat with the next 1. Snorkellers will be taken on a little tour of the reef as 1 group too. Due to how many boats &, therefore, people at reefs the boat team will seek to manage everyone who wants to be in the water. People have been known to be left behind! However, boat staff & dive instructors are usually very good. Also, do be prepared for the almost chaos in the water, as there could be any number of boats mooring alongside your boat at a reef and all the people each one brings - peaceful & calm it is not! However, the underwater life is simply stunning and worth it all. There are many reef sites to visit here and all are fabulous. A scuba divers must visit, and you will have the chance of seeing big fish at the drop offs including sharks.

Ras Mohammed National Park is the unique and best location for snorkeling and diving activities in the whole world. Ras Mohammed Reserve is located in the Sharm El Sheikh region of Egypt and is one of the most beautiful areas in the Red Sea. Red Sea is one of the most beautiful marine environments on the planet 🌍 Known for lush reefs, and a multitude of famous wrecks. A gorgeous, peaceful place to check out when visiting Sharm. Excellent trip, variety of colorful fishes and big corals, excellent mountains and views especially in the return. We've spent an unforgettable few hours in the park snorkeling, swimming in the salt lake and spotting kingfishers in the mangrove forest. Water is very clear, the reef is colourful and alive. I look forward to going back there to explore this stunning place in more detail. It's one of the most beautiful nature reservations in the whole world, the weather Wonderful there, the sea water is very pure, you must do diving to enjoy the marine life in the Red Sea, it is a very wonderful trip you must go when visiting Sharm El Sheikh❤️❤️

We were on an excursion not from a tour operator. The tour operator 's prices were twice as high . Minivan, for half a day, without lunch. A good park, they bring everyone to the same place, only in different sequences. The main place for photos is beautifully stacked huge stones... the rest is so-so. Well, it's difficult to call this place a park, in the broad sense of the word :) For this price...(something like 35 euros for 2 + 1) a great time to get away from hotel life.

One of the last remaining active and alive coral reefs in the world. Majestic.

An open walking area belongs to Savoy hotels with a dancing fountain in the middle that works every one hour for 15 minutes on different songs from different nationalities and languages. There is a plenty of cafes and restaurants where visitors can grab a drink or get a meal. There is also a wide range of shops of different brands for shopping. Some entertaining statues along the street where visitors can take photos with. A nice place overall.

Very nice place especially during night time. It's very lively and you also can watch the Dancing Fountain there also! It just that the location a lil bit far away.

First off, anyone that gives this place a 1 star should be ignored, for something you don't pay for, it was really good, the fountain show was really nice to see and free, the lights around SOHO Square were great and I actually wondered around the shops and wasn't really hastled, not like in some places and as for feeling safe, they had police/security at all entrances and I felt it was good to see. As a plus, they have some really friendly cats around the area that you can pay some attention, if you are an animal person.

Loved the lighting and decorations, there’s so many statutes and figurines to take photos with. There’s a dancing fountain and a cafe with a stage which sometimes has instrument players and singers. There are places to shop, eat and have drinks or snacks.

Great center with many attractions and stores. Nice chill area. Very cool at night with all the lights and interesting animal statues and stuff like that. There's a very nice bridge that's pretty much made just to take pictures. Lots to do in the area. Some bars as well.

Nice, clean, and safe. A good mixture of shops. Selling everything from herbs to clothes. You can still haggle, but no one is rude if you leave with nothing. Most of the shop keepers have a good sense of humour.

Soho Square is the place to be! Lively, full of life and lights, lots of places to eat, drink and shop. Very secure, security on site checking people as they enter. And Friday is happy hour with 35% discount on food! Loved it here!

Worth a visit if your staying in naqb. Only costs 5 Egyptian pounds per person in the mini van local taxis, so don't pay more. It's a standard rate. It's a well decorated outdoor mall. Lots of shops designed for tourists. Plenty to look around. Some really good shops if you want to buy souvenirs and gifts. Including foods and oils, etc.

Good place to spend time with friends and family especially in the nice weather. There are any activities you can do and it’s suitable for kids also I like the bawling game track. There are are many shops sell different local products with good prices but always negotiate with them There is some performance and shows also in the middle theater You can find many options for food between fine dining and fast food. All the major services are available there. You can find many hotels surrounding the area if you want to stay there

Nice place to stroll around in the evening and get something to eat and do some shopping. I personally didn't do any shopping, just walked around, enjoyed the lights, the different areas to take pictures and just browsed the shops. Everything I saw in the shops here, can easily be found in the old market area where the Sahaba mosque is and at a fraction of the price!

Amazing place to spend an evening. Great entertainment, food and drink options. Very clean, no beggars or hassle. Beautifully decorated. Something for everyone of all ages too. Costs are fantastic with 2 drinks (including cocktails) costing around £10gbp

The experience of visiting this place is pretty decent just for a walk, there’s not much else to do without unnecessarily spending tons of money. However, due to security concerns, only couples or families are currently permitted entry. While this policy is intended to enhance safety for tourists, I believe it is unfair that locals from the same country are unable to enjoy this destination. I believe that everyone should have the opportunity to visit and appreciate this place. It offers a wide variety of artificial attractions but nothing exceptional. It’s important to keep in mind that prices can be significantly higher even for foreigners.

Went just after Christmas. Soho square is heavily catered to tourists. All the lights were a little overwhelming and dazzling, but it's that time of year. Nice eateries, an English style pub, and a beautiful short and sweet water fountain show.

Lovely place, I had a great time there. We tried the Chinese restaurant which was awesome, Ms. Divina was super nice. We also tried the sushi place they had fresh authentic sushi dishes 🥰

Nice place to visit after 7 PM you will find good restaurants with many shopping areas. Nice place for shesha lovers as well. Also you can find shesha flavors there

I enjoyed the experience to the max.. you can find everything you need or want.. pleasure, food, shopping, and romance vibes 😍

Vibrant Experience at Soho District, Sharm el-Sheikh The Soho district in Sharm el-Sheikh is a vibrant and lively area that truly makes you feel like you've stepped into a different world. The abundance of lights, decorations, and dynamic fountains create an enchanting atmosphere. One of the highlights of Soho is the variety of restaurants available, offering diverse cuisines to suit every taste. It's worth exploring the dining options here, as prices can vary significantly between establishments. I highly recommend visiting Soho in the evening to fully appreciate its charm and ambiance. Whether you're a local or a tourist in Sharm el-Sheikh, a stroll through Soho promises to be a memorable experience.

Not what we expected. Shops with lookalike products, being hassled to go in stores, two good bits Queen Vic and the supermarket just outside the gates. If you hate being pestered by shop owners avoid.

Based on my personal experience. Naama Bay. Place you visit only one time in your trip. Every one trying to sell me something they make me uncomfortable. And I want to leave. Just go for a little bed then go leave.

Nice place for water sports and at night there is alot of cafes and restaurants

very dirty water from boats. impossible to get to the beach. because it is surrounded by private hotels beaches

There is 1 public beach. You pay 1USD to enter. The beach is ok.. the water is ok..

Amazing,it has soft sandy beach with clean bottom without corals so it's suitable for all water sports

Eventually it’s a nice street with a lot of stores, but be carful the stores price things way more than what it is worth so just tell them you’ll only pay half the price they say about! 🤣👌🏼

Great place with a wonderful mosque in town. Loved it.

Wild place, must visit when you’re in sharm alsheikh. However food is not very tasty.

Lots of restaurants shisha bars and shopping area! Lovely beach

The beach is nice and the Sea is amazing with corals and plenty of fish.

The area, hotel, and beach are lovely... It is a tourist town, nothing else, but it is great for relaxing beach days. The weather also helps a lot. There are many options, such as shopping, bars, and restaurants. The downside is the local dollar currency. Again, it is a tourist town

A tourist venue which has many restaurants, shops and cafés. Important to be very careful. Not suitable for lone travellers. Lots of hassle and quite persistent. Lots of child beggars selling bracelets etc. Personally I liked the fact it was more authentic Egyptian in comparison to Soho Square which is clearly designed for Europeans and travellers but I did feel on edge and unsafe. The shisha venue we visited asked us what flavour we wanted then gave us the most expensive on the menu instead. Alcohol was not on the menu but they did serve it... purpose of this I believe was so that we did not know the prices. We paid £30 gbp for 2 drinks and a shisha, which, whilst that isn't a lot of money at home, it is a lot in comparison to Soho Square where 2 drinks are £10gbp.

we visited many different palce on this trip

Rest in Naama Bay is one of the best ways to experience both historical and modern Egypt at the same time. This resort place is time-tested and thoroughly researched by tourists in all spheres. Naama Bay is considered to be one of the most comfortable beaches of Sharm El Sheikh with a great choice of hotels; cozy cafes, modern restaurants, fragrant hookah lounges, nightclubs and a variety of shops with sweets and souvenirs. This resort, with countless hotels of all stardom levels, shops, cafes with fragrant hookahs, rowdy bars, and clubs, can conquer the heart of even the most spoilt traveler. Nama Bay is the perfect place for those who are not used to sit still, every day being in search of new adventures that are generously offered in this resort: - Snorkelling, diving, boat tours; m Windsurfing, water skiing, tube, aquabike, parasailing, etc.; - Hookah bars and nightclubs - Numerous trade shops and stores. Many tourists visit Naama Bay for beautiful diving among the Red Sea coral gardens. The best dive place is the northern part of the bay, where coral reefs stretch for 3 or more kilometers. There is also a Hollywood amusement park near the beach, which many people compare with Disneyland. As for the cafes and restaurants, there are countless of them offering not only local cuisine but also European dishes.

A very run down resort. Not worth visiting. Nothing but security guards stopping you and saying " you can't go there" A very bad experience. Will never be back.

This is a nice spot for tourists to walk, talk, do some shopping and eat dinner. There are not a lot of shops, but plenty of restaurants. The Marina is very clean, safe and calm. If you want more shops and a loud busy shopping experience Sheraton Road is in walking distance :-)

A very wonderful place that brings pleasure and joy, and the views of the anchored ships, restaurants and cafes, and the beautiful air with romantic music. A very wonderful place. ❤❤🌸🌊⛵

Very nice location for lunch/dinner or just for shisha or late drinks. Plenty of restaurants with wide selection. There are some souvenirs shops and super market.

Most relaxed place, good area for walking

A good place for an evening walk or a cup of coffee with good music

This place looks like form a different world comparing to "real" Hurghada. Very nice for a walk and to have a seat in one of multiple restaurants. It's clean and makes you feel very safe. You will find her some shops like diving, souvenir and jewellery as well. Also you can co for a short cruise or diving from here.

For me it feels like home , it reminds me of that one enormous YACHT PORT located in Cape Town , south africa ,, but our MARINA IS SO SPECIAL BECAUSE OF ITS ARABIAN VIBES OF HOSPITALITY & that European elegance Mixed together to creat our beloved MARINA ( give it a try 😉)

We went to this place, and its not bad to go and have a relaxing day, mostly eaters, but a few shops to buys things. and then lots of private yachts to see.

Beautiful location with many restaurants and shops. it is possible to go there to eat, stroll, run and to buy trips to nearby islands and snorkeling.

The Marina in Hurghada is lovely , the entrance is controlled by security and a police car with police officers is right in front of the gates 24 hours i assume, also the Marina area is surrounded by a fence for extra security i assume. Is very clean, full of restaurants that have reasonable prices, great food and drinks. Food is better than at the all inclusive hotels. I'll add more pictures soon Many of the restaurants have free wifi

Fraud they take money don't come very bad !!!Spoiled our tour

(Translated by Google) I was not able to do this tourist activity at night or in the early morning. I did this activity at dawn. The tour was wonderful. Whoever goes to Sharm, I advise him to ride a motorcycle in the Sinai desert. The views are wonderful and the atmosphere is calm. However, I advise tourists to ask about the price of anything before consuming it, otherwise... Paying exponentially. (Original) لم أتمكن من القيام بهذا النشاط السياحي ليلا أو في الصباح الباكر، قمت بهذا النشاط مع الضحى، الجولة كانت رائعة ومن يذهب إلى الشرم أنصحه بركوب الموتوسيكل في صحراء سيناء، المناظر رائعة والجو هادئ، غير أني أنصح السواح بالسؤال عن ثمن أي شيء قبل إستهلاكه وإلا دفع أضعاف مضاعفة.
