| Ras Mohammed National Park: |
| The Ras Mohammed National Park occupies a total of 480 sq km of land and
sea, including the desert in and around the Ras (or peninsula), Tiran Island
and the shorelines between Sharm El Sheikh harbour and Nabq Protectorate. An
overland trip to Ras Mohammed National Park is highly recommended. This trip
begins with the 'mangroves' and carries on to visit several of the most
beautiful sites in the South Sinai. The opportunity to indulge in a refreshing
swim or snorkeling ends the day. |
|
| Snorkelling & Mangrove Forest: |
| This trip spends an entire day snorkeling and exploring the beauty of the
mangrove forest and visits sites off the main road to Ras Nasrany. |
|
| St. Katherine's Monastery & Dahab: |
| Visit the world-famous St. Katherine's Monastery - apparently one of early
Christianity's only surviving churches. Still a functioning monastery, St.
Katherine is home to the biblical Burning Bush. An early departure will allow
you to visit the monastery before going on to the nearby village beach resort
of Dahab for some local shopping. |
|
| Mt Sinai & St. Katherine's Monastery:
|
| Climb Mt Sinai to experience the most spectacular sunrise or sunset. It is
claimed that those who reach the top of the mountain are cleansed of their
sins. It is at the summit of this mountain that God delivered his Ten
Commandments to Moses. At 2285m high Mt Sinai towers over St. Katherine's
Monastery, which is visited after descending from the mountain. |
|
| Coloured Canyon, Dolphin & Dahab: |
| Discover the extraordinary colours and shapes of the canyon rock formations
which lie between St. Katherine and Nuweiba before visiting Dolphin Bay for a
refreshing swim and shopping in Dahab. |
|
| Grand Safari: |
| The Grand Safari visits all the main sites that the Sinai has to offer.
Enjoy St. Katherine's Monastery, the Coloured Canyon, Dolphin Bay and Dahab by
jeep all in one day! |
