A Reef Where Two Seas Meet

Ras Muhammad, at the tip of Sinai near Sharm, holds coral reefs supporting over 1,000 fish species where the Gulfs of Aqaba and Suez meet. The Red Sea is unusually warm and salty, which is why its corals have proven more heat-tolerant than most.

The clock: Sharm keeps UTC+2. Its dive sites are scheduled around the sun rather than the clock, since visibility depends on the light angle.
