Sharm El Sheikh, or simply Sharm, is one of the largest Egyptian resorts on the Red Sea. It lies in the southern part of the Sinai Peninsula and has become a favourite with fans of package holidays and diving enthusiasts alike.
Only 40 years ago Sharm El Sheikh was a small fishing village with a population of about a hundred Bedouins; today it is one of the most modern resorts in Egypt.
Sharm El Sheikh offers plenty of entertainment: desert safaris by jeep or camel, visits to archaeological sites, diving, nightlife, shopping and more.
A few days will not be enough to fully explore the underwater world. You can choose between ships sunk in World War II, marine parks with an exceptional variety of sea life (such as Ras Mohammed Marine Park and Tiran Island), the Blue Hole - as dangerous as it is beautiful (about 100 km away, in the nearby resort of Dahab) and the Elphinstone Reef near Marsa Alam.
The nightlife, restaurants and shopping centres are concentrated in Naama Bay. The nearby Mount Sinai is considered holy and is home to St Catherine's Monastery. The Bible says that it was on this mountain that Moses received the 10 Commandments from God. Anyone who wants to enjoy the sunshine and fine sand can indulge in a luxury holiday in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt. The resort was built specifically for tourism and is among the most popular in the world. There is no doubt that the weather is excellent for the beach as early as February - wonderful news for those longing for a natural tan at the very start of the year.
Sharm El Sheikh is great both for family holidays and for a romantic getaway with your partner. The seaside town boasts long beaches, beautiful scenery and a climate that is a dream for beach lovers. It enchants with its straw umbrellas and typical Egyptian atmosphere.
