The best beach in Sharm El Sheikh, Ras Um Sid is an attractive beach filled with a variety of things to do. Boasting incredible views of the Red Sea, this well-known holiday resort is also very popular with divers, who want to explore the wealth of life beneath the waves. The setting, at the very top of a peninsula, means the area is a little more laid back and quiet compared to other, more busy beaches in the area.
Close to the old souk – an insight into the traditions and heritage of the local people – there is plenty of accommodation close by that’s very popular with families. The beach itself is a place where divers who visit Egypt can’t help but be entranced by the beauty of the colors of the coral. Rare fish flit and hide in the incredible formations, which can also be seen simply by snorkeling and is a great way for children to learn about the ocean.
