Imagine yourself in one of the most beautiful and famous
deep-sea diving paradises in the world. Your
dreams of crystal clear water, magnificent corals,
exotic under water flora and rare
tropical fish
all come true when you visit Sharm El Sheikh on
the Southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula.
Let your eyes be tantalized by the white sandy
beaches and endless desert landscape, which
contrast with the crystal clear blue water of the
Sinai peninsula.
Sharm El Sheikh has been
heralded as "The City of
Peace"
It is also noted for its sulphur springs, which
are considered cures for those suffering from
rheumatic and skin diseases.
The morphology of Sharm El Sheikh's coastline is
unique.
It is the cosmopolitan capital of the peninsula of
Sinai for its 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 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
to ever suffer from boredom.
Sharm El Sheikh is basically divided into three main regions: Na'ama Bay
This long sandy bay was where the first hotel appeared in the early eighties. The development of the shore-line on this bay is now complete and the seafront boasts a beautiful paved walkway, lined with bougainvillaea and oleander, following the full sweep of the bay. Na'ama Bay is the target for tourists in the evenings. This is where you will find many shops, restaurants, bars and 'Sheesha' cafes. Ras Um Sid Cliff:
This is the cliff top area that links Na'ama Bay and the bay of Sharm El Maya. Ras Um Sid is centrally situated about 5 minutes drive from Sharm in one direction and Na'ama in the other. Ras Om El Seed also is famous for its coral reefs, has a very high cliff where many hotels are situated.
Sharm El Maya
This is the name given to the bay area old town of Sharm El Sheikh. The picturesque bay is a natural harbour and home to many small boats. The beautiful sandy beach has a profusion of palm trees providing natural shade for the sun loungers. This beach area of Sharm El Maya has only recently been developed with 5* hotels, and the old town is only a short walk away.
As you might expect in such a prime diving location, there is a large selection of private companies offering diving courses at all levels and it is one of the cheapest places in the world to pick up a PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors) qualification.
