 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
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.
Four miles south the
southern section of the town stands on a cliff overlooking the port. and
is a great view.
Na'ama Beach is one of the center of the tourist activities. Located
just north of Sharm, this area is developing into a resort town of its
own. Most hotels at Na'ama Bay have their own, private beaches with
comfortable amenities such as chairs, shades and even bars.
Shark's Bay is also nearby, and again is a growing resort community with
more and more to offer, along with several diving centers.
The small harbor known as Sharm el-Moiya is located next to the civil
harbor, has accommodations for boats, and includes a Yacht Club with
rooms.
For those who live to shop, the Sharm El-Sheikh mall provides shops with
both foreign and local products, including jewelry, leather goods,
clothing, pottery and books.
It has been said that this is a must visit for all diving enthusiasts.
There are many diving sites along the 10 mile beach between Sharm
el-Sheikh and Ras Nusrani.
