Along the coast of the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula you find many more dive sites that require less experience than the Straits of Tiran or Ras Mohammed dive sites, yet are still extremely rich in corals and marine life. These are, from north to south: Ras Ghamila, Ras Nasrani, Ras Bob, White Knight, Far Garden, Middle Garden, Near Garden, Sodfa, Tower, Amphoras, Turtle Bay, Paradise, Ras Umm Sid, Temple and Ras Katy.
These dive sites with their sandy plateaus and pinnacles but with the absence of strong currents are very well suited for beginners or for courses. Yet they are still very attractive for experienced divers due to the beauty of the dive sites and because of the big fish like mantas or whale sharks that can be seen there now and then during the summer months.
