Which is better for snorkelling, Sharm el Sheikh or Hurghada?

Which is better for snorkelling, Sharm el Sheikh or Hurghada?

The Red Sea beck­ons with vibrant coral reefs and daz­zling marine life, mak­ing both Sharm el Sheikh and Hurgha­da prime des­ti­na­tions for snorkel­ers. But with each boast­ing unique under­wa­ter expe­ri­ences, choos­ing the per­fect spot can be tricky. Let’s dive in and explore which resort reigns supreme for your snor­kel­ing adven­ture.

Sharm el Sheikh: A Kaleidoscope of Coral

Sharm el Sheikh takes the crown for sheer vari­ety and prox­im­i­ty to world-class reefs. Ras Mohammed Nation­al Park, a UNESCO World Her­itage Site, is a snorkel­er’s par­adise. Here, vibrant coral gar­dens teem with col­or­ful fish, while dra­mat­ic drop-offs offer glimpses of larg­er marine life. Near­by, the leg­endary SS Thistle­gorm wreck, a World War II ship­wreck teem­ing with fish, awaits explo­ration. Sharm el Sheikh caters well to begin­ners, with many hotels offer­ing house reefs acces­si­ble direct­ly from the shore.

Hurghada: Laid-Back Luxury and Reef Riches

Hurgha­da offers a relaxed atmos­phere with a wider range of hotel options, often at more afford­able prices. While the reefs aren’t quite as dra­mat­ic as Sharm el Sheikh’s, they still boast incred­i­ble diver­si­ty. Many hotels have house reefs, per­fect for casu­al snorkelling. Boat trips whisk you away to off­shore gems like Gif­tun Island, renowned for its coral for­ma­tions and crys­tal-clear waters. Addi­tion­al­ly, Hurgha­da offers a good selec­tion of wreck dives, mak­ing it a well-round­ed choice for snorkel­ers.

Choosing Your Underwater Adventure

  • For the most stun­ning reefs and diverse marine life: Sharm el Sheikh wins hands down, espe­cial­ly with access to Ras Mohammed Nation­al Park.
  • For a relaxed atmos­phere, con­ve­nient house reefs, and afford­abil­i­ty: Hurgha­da might be a bet­ter fit.
  • For a mix of snor­kel­ing and oth­er activ­i­ties: Both resorts offer plen­ty of options, but Hurgha­da might have a slight edge with its prox­im­i­ty to his­tor­i­cal sites like Lux­or.

Ulti­mate­ly, the best choice depends on your pri­or­i­ties. Con­sid­er your bud­get, desired lev­el of adven­ture, and trav­el style. Whichev­er resort you choose, the Red Sea’s under­wa­ter world promis­es an unfor­get­table snor­kel­ing expe­ri­ence.
