A reef wall dropping into blue water close enough to reach by wading in from the beach, desert mountains behind that turn the colour of the coral at sunset, and dive sites rated among the best on the planet without the boat ride most of them require elsewhere.
The best time to visit Sharm El Sheikh & the Red Sea is Oct–Apr, when typical daytime highs reach about 31°C (88°F).
