The simplicity of sun, sea and
sand. The luxury of five-star
hotels, water sports, shopping
and entertainment. This is Sharm
El-Sheikh, one of the most
accessible and developed tourist
resort communities on the Sinai
peninsula. All around are
Bedouins, colorful tents,
mountains and sea.
There are small, intimate hotels
with modern designs, as well as
larger hotel complexes belonging
to International chains, plus
about all the amenities one
could expect of a tourist
center, including casinos,
discos and nightclubs, golf
courses and health facilities.
In fact, with scuba diving and
snorkeling, windsurfing and
other water sports, horses and
camel riding, desert safaris,
and great nearby antiquities
attractions, it is almost
impossible for a visitor not to
relax and enjoy.
The many surrounding cultural
attractions offer the ideal
opportunity for forays into the
desert in four-wheel drive
jeeps. Dine under the stars in a
Bedouin tent and savor the
majesty of the mountains as they
come alive with strategically
placed lighting. Barbequed lamb
and other Egyptian delicacies
are served to the backdrop of an
exciting Rababa show.
Naama Beach, the center of
tourist activities is 6 km to
the south standing on a cliff
overlooking the port, and is a
great view. This area is
developing into a resort town of
its own. Most hotels at Naama
Bay have their own, private
beaches with comfortable
amenities such as chairs, shades
and even bars. |
