Shark and Yolanda Reef

The signature drift of Ras Mohammed National Park, run as a single dive across twin coral towers (Shark Reef and Yolanda Reef) and an 800m wall. The Yolanda cargo — toilets, bathtubs and shipping containers from a 1980 wreck — is scattered across a plateau at 15-18m. Expect a drift in moderate current, with Napoleon wrasse, glassfish shoals and reef sharks along the wall.
