Sharm El Sheikh Trips & Tours
Sharm El Sheikh
After a few days of temple-gazing and obelisk-ogling, there will probably come a time on your Egypt trip when the thought of some sun, sea and sand seems, well, incredibly appealing. Enter Sharm El Sheikh and the alluringly-named Red Sea Riviera on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula. Down here the sea is turquoise, the sand is perfectly pearlescent, and visitors, European and Egyptian alike, are drawn to beach-side living. The real appeal is, however, below that glittering cerulean surface…. Diving in the Red Sea is on the to-do list for most divers and with one look at the kaleidoscopic fish darting in and out of the coral and the starfish clinging to the reefs, you’ll see why. If you’re not prone to donning a scuba suit, there’s plenty of ways to enjoy the marine life on glass-bottom boat trips and snorkelling expeditions, whilst adventure-seekers can get their thrills water-skiing, parasailing, jet skiing or windsurfing. This is an iconic beach destination with all the trimmings.

Located where the Sinai Peninsula reaches out into the Red Sea, Sharm El Sheikh is the definition of a beach resort. The number one reason for a visit is diving, thanks to the stellar water clarity and pleasant ocean temperature, and there are dozens of sites to choose from including wrecks left behind from WWII. Look out for dolphins, turtles and plenty more. If your preference lies above the water, there's waterskiing, parasailing and windsurfing too, as well as scenic sails in glass-bottomed boats. Otherwise, head inland to marvel at - or hike to the top of - Mount Sinai, visit the historic Saint Catherine's Monastery, and explore the desert by camel.
The diving. World War II wrecks, pristine coral reefs, dolphins, rainbow-coloured anemone gardens, and turtles are just the tip of the iceberg…
Sharm doesn’t just mean Sharm El Sheikh. Outside the town itself, there are some gorgeous coves and bays where laidback is the name of the game – and there are far less people around.
Sharm has a reputation for all-in-one resorts and it’s true that the town has more than its fair share of package holidaymakers – but there’s still enjoyment to be had away from the mega hotels and shiny tourist lights.
