TL;DR
Choose beaches with sandy entry and no coral — Naama Bay in Sharm el-Sheikh is a popular family-friendly option. Water shoes are still recommended.
Naama Bay in Sharm el-Sheikh is great for young children — sandy entry, no sharp coral underfoot. Kids from age 3 can splash around comfortably for hours. Water shoes are still a good idea as a precaution.
For toddlers under 2, look specifically for a sandy-bottom bay with no coral. Sandy entry is safe and comfortable; coral bays are not suitable for very young children.
For an 11-year-old, a coral-entry beach can be uncomfortable without proper footwear. A sandy-entry beach is a much better choice. Fish in these areas generally avoid people and pose no real danger.
