Sharm El Sheikh is a city situated on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula
in Egypt and has
become a leading tourist resort thanks to its dramatic landscape, year-round dry and temperate climate and long stretches of natural beaches. Its
waters are clear and calm for most of the year and have become popular for various water sports, particularly recreational scuba diving
and snorkelling which some consider to be among the
best in the world. Coral reefs, under water and marine life, offer a spectacular and dazzling time for divers.
Sharm features all the amenities one could expect of a top class tourist resort,
including casinos, discos and nightclubs, golf courses, windsurfing and other water sports, horses and camel riding, desert safaris,
and great nearby antiquities attractions.
