TL;DR
A medium-size silicone mask and snorkel set in Sharm El Sheikh costs around US$17–18 in street shops, including stores around the TUSA landmark. Choose silicone rather than very cheap materials, as older silicone masks can dry out over time.
One reported option is a roughly US$17 set with a silicone mask, a snorkel with a lower valve, and nose coverage. A similar kit bought in Egypt was considered good quality and lasted for years.
Look for dive and snorkelling shops around the TUSA landmark, where there are several suitable outlets. A mid-range silicone mask costs about US$18.
Medium-size silicone masks are also sold by street-side shops in Sharm El Sheikh for around US$18. You do not necessarily need to buy from Fix; similar sets are available from outdoor retail stalls.
