Ras Mohammed & White Island -Imagine gliding across the turquoise-emerald waters of the Red Sea aboard a sleek luxury yacht, the sun warming your back and the dramatic Sinai coast unfolding ahead. That’s exactly the kind of escape you’ll get on the White Island & Ras Mohammed boat trip from Sharm El Sheikh—an experience that blends island serenity, vibrant underwater world and the kind of effortless luxury that makes you feel you’ve stepped into a travel magazine.
Whether you’re craving soft white sand beneath your toes, vivid coral gardens just below the surface, or simply a day where everything is taken care of—this cruise delivers. Let’s dive into why this day out will stay with you long after your hotel returns to view.
Cruising toward White Island feels like a dream. This sandbank—part of the Ras Mohammed National Park—rises from the sea like a spotlighted stage of white sugar-sand, framed by the Red Sea’s clearest blue. You’ll step ashore and feel the powder beneath your feet, wander the shallow shorelines and snap photos that look like postcards. Many travellers call it one of the most photogenic spots in Egypt. White Island Sharm El Sheikh+1
Before or after White Island you’ll explore Ras Mohammed’s underwater marvels. With over 130 coral species and more than 1,000 fish species reported, this park is a global super-lative of marine life. GetYourGuide+1 What makes it even more dramatic: the meeting of the Gulfs of Suez and Aqaba, creating dynamic currents and unusual reef formations. This is not just snorkelling—it’s a front-row seat into nature’s complexity.
Cruise in style on a premium yacht from Sharm El Sheikh marina—luxury deck, shaded lounge, sea breeze.
Two or three guided snorkel stops: vibrant coral gardens, reef walls, abundant fish and maybe a turtle.
Visit White Island: walk on the sandbank, swim in shallow turquoise water, relax on deck.
Buffet lunch on board: fresh salads, grilled options, rice/pasta, soft drinks under the sun.
Qualified snorkeling guides ensure comfort, safety and that you don’t miss the best vantage points.
Hotel pickup & drop-off by air-conditioned transfer—no stress, just smooth adventure.
Best time: Early start ensures calm seas and ideal light for photos. The yacht is most comfortable before midday heat intensifies.
What to pack: Reef-safe sunscreen (the Red Sea coral is sensitive), sunglasses, hat, swimsuit, towel, waterproof camera or case.
Conservation note: Don’t touch coral, avoid standing on reef, rinse gear in freshwater afterwards. This area is a protected marine reserve.
Footwear: On board you’ll find sun loungers; for White Island stroll you may walk barefoot but flip-flops are handy.
Mobility: The yacht and island visit are reasonably accessible—advance notice for special assistance helps.
Photography tip: When anchored at White Island, wait until afternoon for softer golden light on the sandbank for stunning shots.
Typical pricing starts from approximately €27 per person for the group boat trip. Premium/“VIP” yacht versions may run higher. Many operators allow booking via WhatsApp or web, often with no prepayment. Tripadvisor+1
Pro tip: “VIP” versions often guarantee fewer guests, top-tier yacht, and additional stops—if budget allows, they’re worth it for the comfort upgrade.

Your day begins with a comfortable pickup from your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh. You’ll ride in an A/C vehicle to the marina, pass through the palm-lined port and board the yacht. As the rope lifts, the yacht glides eastward and the coastline opens up.
After about an hour of sailing, you’ll anchor at a prime reef site in Ras Mohammed. Your guide briefs you, hands you snorkel gear (or helps if you bring your own) and you step into calm water. Below you are vivid coral gardens, parrotfish, angelfish and maybe even a gentle turtle gliding by.
Next: White Island. The yacht anchors in shallow, crystal-clear water and you disembark onto pale white sand that glows in the midday sun. Here you can stroll, swim in the shallows, sunbathe or capture that picture-perfect moment.
Back on board, the chef presents a buffet of grilled chicken or meat, crisp salads, rice and pasta, and refreshing soft drinks. You dine with sea views, watching the coastline drift past and feeling the gentle sway of the yacht.
After lunch you dive/snorkel again at another reef site—this time perhaps a bit more dramatic with coral drop-offs and larger fish life. The guide leads you through underwater passages and shows you points of interest.
As the yacht heads back, you have time to rinse off, relax on the deck, browse the photo display or simply enjoy the breeze. The A/C vehicle waits at the marina to deliver you back to your hotel around 5 PM, full of memories
