THE RED SEA RESORTS
SHARM EL SHEIKH

For the more passive holidaymakers, simply enjoy the sunshine from the comfort of your hotel pool or enjoy a relaxing afternoon in your hotel’s spa. If you like to be in a lively area in the middle of everything, Naama Bay is the busy centre with an array of cafes, restaurants, bars and shops
