Things to do in Sharm El-Sheikh

Sharm El-Sheikh

1. Sharm El-Sheikh, an enchanting city located in Egypt, is found in the southern part of the Sinai Peninsula. This city plays a crucial role in Egypt's tourism industry, drawing numerous international conferences and diplomatic events.

As the administrative center of the South Sinai Governorate, Sharm El-Sheikh is celebrated as one of the top destinations for relaxation after experiencing the historical tours of Egypt. Spanning over 20 kilometers along the Sinai Peninsula's coastline, it is particularly famous among snorkelers and scuba divers. The city is nestled within a bay characterized by a rocky outcrop, bordered by the sea on one side and mountains on the other. The beachfront features a promenade adorned with palm trees, leading to a variety of bars, cafes, and restaurants. Despite the growing number of tourists, the expansive coral reef remains vibrant with extraordinary marine life.

Sharm El-Sheikh is organized into two primary areas: the southern part, which includes the port city, and approximately 7 kilometers to the north is the famous Naama Bay, a luxurious tourist destination. This area provides a wide array of water activities, such as sailing lessons, windsurfing, and parasailing, along with captivating glass-bottom boat tours available in Sharm El-Sheikh.

Situated about 10 kilometers north of Naama Bay is Sharks Bay, a smaller and more serene resort area that is also more budget-friendly. The recent opening of a five-star hotel has attracted more visitors, with further developments expected. The coral reefs and tropical fish are breathtaking, and despite its name, Sharks Bay does not actually host any sharks; the name derives from the shape of the shoreline, which resembles a shark.

To the north of Sharks Bay, where the Red Sea meets the Gulf of Aqaba, lies the Straits of Tiran. Diving trips to Tiran and Sanafìr Island can be arranged from Naama, Sharm, and Sharks Bay, with the island recognized as a protected natural area that is home to a diverse array of fish.
