All of our featured hotels
Sharm El Sheikh lies at the southern tip of the Sinai peninsula, where the desert merges with the beautifully clear waters of the Red Sea.
Naama Bay is the main resort, with hotels and dive centres overlooking the sandy, gently shelving beach while shops, cafés, bars and restaurants are behind the promenade. The areas of Ras Nasrani and Nabq Bay to the north, and Ras Um Sid and Sharm itself to the south, are quieter yet only a short ride from Naama Bay. A variety of water sports, sandy beaches, snorkelling and scuba diving combine to make this one of the most popular locations on the coast.
Sharm El Sheikh offers excellent diving for everyone, from complete beginners to experts. Ras Mohammed, to the south of the resort, offers spectacular reefs and prolific marine life. The SS Thistlegorm with its cargo of WWII items, is a favourite amongst wreck divers, whilst at the mouth of the Gulf of Aqaba, the Straits of Tiran are home to rays, dolphins.
