Buceo y submarinismo en Sharm el-Sheij
per osaenzSharm el-Sheij es uno de los sitios más populares del mundo para practicar el buceo. Además, se trata del lugar donde comenzó la tradición de sumergirse en uno de los escenarios submarinos más impresionantes del mundo. El área tiene todo lo necesario para garantizar una aventura inolvidable en el Mar Rojo: corales duros y blandos, tortugas y delfines, mantas y morenas, napoleones y atunes, peces martillo, barracudas, tiburones de arrecife o pelágicos y mucho más, incluyendo el famoso pecio de Thistlegorm de la Segunda Guerra Mundial�
