TL;DR

Travelers say the sea entry and beach quality in Sharm El Sheikh differ a lot from Turkey — the Red Sea is seen as more interesting, especially once kids are old enough for snorkeling and reefs.

What the community said

After a first Red Sea trip, many say they no longer want to go back to Turkey's beaches — the sea in Sharm El Sheikh feels far more appealing.

Families who chose Turkey while their kids were small tend to switch to the Red Sea once kids grow up — Turkey starts feeling boring compared to the reefs and snorkeling here.

Travelers who previously vacationed in Turkey and the UAE note that sea entry and overall beach conditions in Sharm El Sheikh are noticeably better.
