Sharm Salman is a boat-accessed Red Sea reef south of Port Ghalib with several coral-covered blocks and a one-way profile. The site is easy to read but still interesting, with hard and soft coral, turtles, moray eels, and plenty of macro life on the blocks. It suits divers who want a guided boat reef with a bit of surprise rather than a simple shore hop.

Several coral-covered blocks and a one-way route make it a guided boat dive rather than a casual shore hop.
