Fantastic family boat trip to Ras Mohammed and White Island – 3 amazing dives!
We had a fantastic day out on a boat trip from Sharm El Sheikh to Ras Mohammed and White Island! I was travelling with my wife and our two daughters, and the experience was excellent for the whole family. I am a keen diver and initially planned to do two dives at Ras Mohammed. Both were absolutely beautiful, with incredible marine life, colourful fish, moray eels and everything you would hope to see in the Red Sea. The dive instructor was so friendly, professional and enjoyable to dive with that I actually decided to do a third dive later in the day! Meanwhile, my daughters had a wonderful time snorkelling and trying Discover Scuba Diving, while my wife simply enjoyed relaxing on the comfortable sunbeds and soaking up the sunshine on board. There really was something for everyone! Another highlight was the lunch served on the boat. The food was fresh, delicious and surprisingly good – honestly, better than on several other boat trips I've taken in Sharm El Sheikh over the years. The entire crew deserves a special mention. Everyone was genuinely friendly, polite, helpful and welcoming. They spoke several languages, including English, Italian and Russian, making everyone feel comfortable and well looked after. The boat itself was excellent, clean and comfortable. Having been on several boat excursions in Sharm El Sheikh over the years, I can confidently say that this was one of the best experiences we've had. Highly recommended for families, snorkellers and divers alike! We had an unforgettable day and would happily do it all over again. Thank you to the wonderful crew for making our day so special!

Sharm El Sheikh: Ras Mohammed & White Island Luxury Yacht Trip: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sharm el Sheikh.
How much does Sharm El Sheikh: Ras Mohammed & White Island Luxury Yacht Trip cost?
+
Prices start at $25 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Sharm el Sheikh usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Sharm El Sheikh: Ras Mohammed & White Island Luxury Yacht Trip take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Sharm el Sheikh is not rushed.
Is Sharm El Sheikh: Ras Mohammed & White Island Luxury Yacht Trip worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 86 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 376 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Sharm el Sheikh, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Sharm El Sheikh: Ras Mohammed & White Island Luxury Yacht Trip?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Sharm El Sheikh: Ras Mohammed & White Island Luxury Yacht Trip suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Sharm El Sheikh: Ras Mohammed & White Island Luxury Yacht Trip?
+
Around 132 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Sharm el Sheikh can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Sharm el Sheikh and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Sharm El Sheikh: Ras Mohammed & White Island Luxury Yacht Trip start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Sharm el Sheikh within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Sharm el Sheikh?
+
On Outty we rank every Sharm el Sheikh experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Sharm El sheikh Safari ATV Quad with Camel Ride & hotel transfer, Sharm El Sheikh: Ras Mohammed Snorkeling, Allah Gate & Magic Lake, Sharm El-Sheikh: Ultimate ATV Quad, Stargazing & BBQ Dinner. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Sharm el Sheikh?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Sharm el Sheikh?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
