Beach holidays Egypt

Nowhere else on Earth will you find such a wealth of ancient sites, fine sands, clear blue waters and sleek modern hotel complexes during your beach holidays. With more than 50 dive sites to choose from, the Red Sea is a haven for divers as it has the only enclosed coral-sea in the world.

The chief resort on the Sinai Peninsula is Sharm el-Sheikh, although the smaller resorts of Dahab, Nuweiba and Taba are also attractive options for the more laid-back holidaymaker. On the mainland coast, Hurghada is the capital of entertainment, with Marsa Alam and El Gouna not far behind.

The man-made beaches of El Gouna, some of which only accessible by boat are ideal for relaxation and there are numerous dive sites where you can see the splendour of the coral reefs.

Life in Dahab, located 95 km north of Sharm el-Sheikh, centers on the beach front. There is a variety of water activities including kite surfacing, dinghy sailing and wind surfing suitable for all levels.

Most hotels in Hurghada have their own private beaches. If a sport takes place in or on water, you can bet you can do it in Hurghada, from windsurfing to deep-sea fishing; the resort has it all.
