El Fanar / Ras Um Sid Lighthouse Area

El Fanar and Ras Um Sid form one of Sharm El-Sheikh’s best-known reef and cliff-top coastal areas. The headland overlooks the Red Sea and is associated with shore-access snorkeling and diving, beach clubs and sunset viewpoints around the lighthouse area.

Individual beaches and dive operators control their own access, opening times and charges, so visitors should distinguish the public geographic area from paid facilities operating within it.
