How much does a snorkeling mask cost in Sharm El Sheikh?

In Sharm El Sheikh, you can both buy and rent a mask and snorkel. Prices are quite affordable, especially compared to buying before your trip.

Here are approximate prices in 2026:

• Rental of a set (mask + snorkel): from $2 per day. This is the most cost-effective option if you don't plan to dive every day.
• Buying a new set: from $10. For this money, you can buy a simple but functional set at any tourist shop or from street vendors.
• Water shoes (coral shoes): from $5 to $10. This is a must-have for snorkeling in Sharm, as you often have to enter the water over sharp corals. It's better to buy them right away; they will also be useful for regular beach holidays.

Tip: if you are seriously into snorkeling, it's better to buy your own mask at home in advance to be sure of its quality and seal. But if you're just trying it out, renting on the spot is the simplest and cheapest option.
