To attract tourists, they say that they began to set up, but this is not possible in Egypt, especially in Sharm, where there is depth, and in shallow water they are not needed anyway.
Buoys have been placed here and there, but there are no nets.
They also put a looker with a whistle and binoculars, but I can guess where he is looking through the binoculars.

Yes, swim in health! I heard that the shark went to Hurghada in search of food!

It is impossible to install any networks there, as Russian tourism functionaries claim. Either someone who has never been to Sharm, or a deceiver, which is most likely, can talk about networks. :) A typical seashore in Sharm consists of a rock that breaks into a short 5 meter wide beach, followed by 5 meters of shallow water, where nets are not needed, then 15 meters there is a reef, behind which the sea is already 4 meters deep and the bottom drops sharply, at an angle of 30-45 degrees. That is, 20 meters from the pontoon there will already be 10-20 meters deep - what kind of metal network can there be? It will cost more than all the hotels on the coast. :)

Some hotels claim to have placed the nets just in front of the reef, ie. in the shallows to protect tourists.... So, if someone uses a pontoon, be sure that there are no nets...

This is me to the fact that barrier nets are needed both at depth and in shallow water. I am for the safest possible swimming (many have a rest with children). And if you don’t feel that you are safe, you won’t be able to relax and get high.

eniska, how do you feel about "jokers" in matters of security in the Red Sea, in particular in matters of sharks?

If blood is poured onto the beach, they will jump out, why is this video feeding fish?
This is often done in resorts, but this is not Egypt and not Longimanus ...

It's just that some people think that sharks can only swim at great depths. This video proves that depth is not so important for them. They move at a decent speed right at the water's edge.

"They move at a decent speed right at the water's edge" - this water's edge has smooth sand, no corals, sharks will not climb sharp corals at a depth of 60 cm.

In my opinion, I did not say a word about its danger to people. I only noticed that strange and sometimes inexplicable things have been happening in nature lately.

And at the expense of funny-When the Arabs were told that in Tirana they saw a shark near the pontoon for two days in a row in the morning, do you know what the reaction was? and the shark attacked.

Was it a nurse shark?
It is not dangerous. The teeth are double-topped. The food is sucked in and crushed.
