Sharm El Sheikh holidays - travel guide
introduction to Sharm El Sheikh
Sharm El Sheikh consists of three bays, Naama Bay, Shark's Bay and Nabq Bay, and together they combine to make this a watersport paradise. You'll be spoilt for choice and can be as active as you please - most hotels also have their own diving school - or simply enjoy the golden sands and warm crystal clear waters. Naama Bay is the main centre and has become a stylish resort, consisting of many bars and terraced cafés, that is now very popular with Italians (much of the entertainment is geared toward Italians).
