Which beach area of a Sharm El Sheikh beachfront resort has the best reef and easiest sea entry — Rimal or Montemare?

Based on 2 discussions with 3 participants · Last activity: 1 day ago

TL;DR

The Rimal reef area has unbeatable snorkeling, but Montemare wins on overall resort feel; sea entry isn't the gentlest but getting out of the water is easy.

What the community said

One traveler compared two trips: this year staying in the Rimal area, last year in Montemare. Overall the Montemare resort felt better, but the reef at Rimal is clearly superior for snorkeling.

A 62-year-old traveler who has stayed at this resort 7 times (last in May, returning in November) says entering the sea isn't the smoothest, but getting out is easier — it doesn't stop her from coming back.

A traveler heading there in 2 weeks specifically booked a beachfront (first-line) hotel and warns that in August 40-42°C is manageable, but 44°C+ gets really tough — better to avoid going out midday.
