Q: We are due to go in Oct and they want to go snorkelling only telling me about sharks is not convincing me to go snorkelling
A: I worried the same, But there has only been like one shark attack in Egypt, And that was in 90s. I heard their are great whites in the med sea. In Sharm there are lots of sharks but the most infested place would be Ras Muhammad, I even went skiing etc.. there but nothing happened to me. I went to Tabba this year, And while i was there i took a submarine down to the sea and saw nothing. My dad is a captain on a oil tanker and he has pictures of sharks in the red sea swimming next to his ship. Mostly hammer heads Edit: Forgot, If you go to Jackson reef. And go up north you will be in shark city,
