There are plenty of cashpoints around.
Credit cards are accepted most places but be careful - some places, especially the diving outfits add a surcharge of up to 10% on credit card transactions.
If taking cash, Euros are the thing and both Egyptians and dive guides will be happy to take them/exchange them at a good rate.
There is a restaurant near McDonalds at the end of the high street - up some stairs on the corner. Called Dannaneer. Very good place to eat and safe as far as I can tell.
Make sure you dive Shark - Yolanda reef, it's my favourite.
Don't overpay for taxis - 15 to 20 LE (£1.50 - £2) should get you anywhere including from Naama Nay to Sharm old town.
The old town is worth a visit for it's fish restaurants - the Sinai Star and others. Cheaper than Naama.
Bars in Naama - The Camel is a divers favourite, The Pirates Bar at the Hilton Fayrouz or The Tavern - quite new and opposite the main taxi rank in Naama just along a side street.
Eat the food on the boats - I've found it to be safe. Usually potatoes/rice/pasta with meat/fish/vegetables it supplements the crew's income. At 30LE including all the water/coke you can drink for the day it's pretty cheap.
Tip the crew on the boats if they're helpful - they get paid sh*t. 10 - 20 LE per day is normal.
Take something warm - jumper or fleece as the wind on the boat can get quite chilly this time of year.
Enjoy!
