Sharm El-sheikh – Different Egypt
This fabulous place with deserted landscapes and emerald surface of the Red Sea is located in the very south of the Sinai Peninsula. The pearl of Sharm el-Sheikh is Naama Bay with numerous hotels, shopping centers, restaurants – all united at this world famous resort city. Sharm el-Sheikh is an ideal resort – prices are reasonable, level of service is rather high and thanks to its warm and dry climate people come here on their vacations all year round.
This green and perfectly clean spot is ideal for those fond of underwater exotics. Corals are located almost next to the coast. Remains of sunken ships, shark bay and other sights attract divers from all over the world. We recommend you a visit to unique Ras Mohammed National Park where flora and fauna wonders of the Red sea all come together. Diving centers offer lessons and instructions, but this is not the end of the list. Water skis are an ideal way to entertain yourself following the motor-launch along the coast. You can also go in for windsurfing which will make you feel like you are flying over the sea. Hotels offer tennis courts, water aerobics, fitness centers and Jacuzzi.
Nightlife is an excellent addition to the daytime beach, sea and excursions. Magnificent quay stretching along the Naama Bay is filled with shops, discos and restaurants. Numerous "Eastern cafes" have a comfortable atmosphere. Here you can surround yourself with cushions and drink true Turkish coffee with cardamom.
For stylish design and excellent beer go to Harry`s Pub (Marriott Hotel). Fish Restaurant will offer you fish delicacies and traditional Hilton service. Though seafood can also be tasted in many other places. Finally, if you are tired of local food, go to McDonald`s or Pizza Hut. Many tourists will be surprised to discover that there are Hard Rock Cafe and Planet Hollywood found here. And of course don't miss the Black House disco (next to Rosetta hotel). Dance floor is a bit small, but music is energetic, and only an hour later you will feel at ease. At night visit bowling or artificial skating rink. Kids will like Fun Town Attraction Park.
In the very centre of Naama Bay there is a duty free shop to buy perfumery, household appliances, leather and jewellery. And, of course, your purchases won't be taxed.
Excursions. Mount Sinai, or Mount Musa, is visited by thousands of pilgrims every year. According to a legend this was the mount where God gave laws to the Israelites. Another legend says that all your grieves will be forgiven here at sunrise. There is also a Monastery of St. Catherine located at the foot of the mountain. This is the oldest Christian monastery.
The Colored Canyon is another natural gift: stone and sand rocks shimmer with various colours, which will make your heart beat faster.
You can also make a bus or an air trip to Cairo or Luxor to see the ancient Egyptian sanctuaries – true world wonders. If you prefer active sports, you can go in for safari, make a visit to the Bedouin village, ride aboard a camel and see traditional dancing. You can also visit Petra in Jordan, famous for its stone structures carved into the rock that will surely impress you.
