Considering A Location For Your Egyptian Holiday

Egypt is a year round family trip vacation destination with something for everyone. A few years ago, there was only really a pick of only two seaside resorts; Sharm el Sheikh or Hurghada. Currently, there is more on offer to the holiday maker.

 

For people hunting for night life after a day in the sun, Hurghada and Sharm el Sheikh are the places to be. Nevertheless, it is important to make sure that you know where your accommodation is in relation to the heart of the resort as some can be several miles away. However, many places to stay do run free of charge shuttle buses or taxi cabs are good value.

 

For scuba divers, all of the places are fine however the Marina Lodge at Port Ghalib has the perfect set up for all scuba divers. The dive centre is positioned at the hotel and there are lots of awesome dive sites in easy reach of the day boats. More importantly, it is nowhere near as crowded as locations like Sharm.

 

For divers with a non-diving spouse and kids, the Hilton in Nuweiba is a fantastic choice. The diving here is for the most part shore based which means you don’t have to be away from the wife and children all day long which is what happens on day boats.

 

For golfers, the choice of alternatives is developing all the time but the best value is found at Taba Heights. From the fairways, you look down at the sea and three different nations are visible; Egypt, Israel and Jordan.Taba is also perfect for those who want to pop over to experience the Israeli vacation resort of Eilat.

 

For those looking for a restful, enjoyable holiday, El Quseir is perhaps one of the quietest. The awesome all-in-one places to stay mean you can spend your holiday break between your room, dining areas, the seaside and swimming pool. El Quseir is on a stretch of coastline with a selection of quiet resorts in particular Soma Bay, Safaga, Makadi Bay and El Gouna.

 

Any of the resorts in the vicinity of Hurghada are a great choice for those who want to head out on day excursions. Luxor with its splendid treasures is a 4 hr bus ride away and it is also possible to take a excursion to Cairo and the Pyramids by road. When deciding upon your vacation resort for your Red Sea holiday, there is definitely no lack of options.
