Tucked into a cliff-backed cove just north of Naama Bay, Shark's Bay is one of Sharm's most beloved house reefs — a coral shelf that runs close to shore before dropping away into a deep blue channel. Snorkellers can explore the shallow garden of hard and soft corals straight from the beach, while divers roll off into the drop-off for wall dives rich with reef fish.
The name promises more drama than the gentle reality: it's a friendly, accessible site with easy entry and dependable visibility. Waterfront restaurants perch above the cove, so you can surface, climb the steps and eat with your fins still dripping and the Red Sea glittering below.
Know before you go
Enter over the reef flat at the marked channels rather than walking on the coral, and keep clear of the deep boat-lane at the drop-off.
