White Island – Egypt’s Hidden Paradise

Rather than being a traditional island, it is a stunning natural sandbank that appears where the Gulf of Aqaba meets the Gulf of Suez. During low tide, brilliant white sand emerges from the turquoise sea, creating one of Egypt’s most photographed natural attractions.

Walking barefoot across the soft sand while surrounded by endless shades of blue feels almost surreal.

The shallow crystal-clear water makes White Island ideal for:

• Swimming

• Relaxing

• Photography

• Drone footage

• Family fun

• Romantic moments

Many visitors describe White Island as the highlight of their entire Sharm El Sheikh holiday.

Founded in 1983, Ras Mohammed National Park is Egypt’s first protected national park and one of the world’s finest snorkeling destinations.

During your snorkeling sessions, you may encounter:

• Butterflyfish

• Parrotfish

• Angelfish

• Clownfish

• Lionfish

• Blue-spotted stingrays
