Best places to travel on holiday to Sharm El Sheikh in Egypt - world holiday vibes blog
SHARE

Peace! Isn’t that what we desire at the end of the day? No matter where we plan to travel during our holidays, in the end, we only consider, “will that destination give us peace?” If that is the same question running in your mind, I’m going to enlighten you with an idea of a city known as the city of peace. Sharm El Sheikh is celebrated as a city that provides peace, breeze and beach for its guests every time they step foot into it. This city is the main tourist hub on the Sinai Peninsula and a premier diving location. The Red Sea’s underwater tourist attractions, particularly those in the waters of the Ras Mohammed Marine Park just south of town, are what originally put “Sharm” in the spotlight on the tourism map of Sinai. For anyone considering an Egypt diving vacation, this is one of the best locations in Egypt. Go on a holiday to Egypt and return with some precious memories.

Excurse Ras Mohammed national park

Excurse Ras Mohammed national park - Best places to travel on holiday to Sharm El Sheikh in Egypt - low cost vibes blog

As the iconic symbol of the city, Ras Mohammed national park is a major reason for the high tide of tourist visits in recent times. This peninsula, 38 kilometres south of Sharm, is home to magnificent beaches with good snorkelling right offshore, the second-most northerly mangrove forest in the world, and a saltwater lake. It is surrounded by some of the most fantastic dive sites in the world. While diving excursions focus on the offshore reefs, land-based day tours to Ras Mohammed explore the peninsula’s beaches and desert environment, making stops for swims and snorkels. The nicest beaches are Old Quay Beach and Aqaba Beach, which both have excellent coral reefs accessible from the shore.

Have a sunbath at Naama Bay

Have a sunbath at Naama Bay - Best places to travel on holiday to Sharm El Sheikh in Egypt - world holiday vibes blog

Naama Bay, which is surrounded by a white-sand beach and swaying palm trees, is the focus of Sharm el-Sheikh’s Resort scene. If you get tired of the sand, there are many cafes, restaurants, and gift shops nearby, but the beach is what Naama Bay is known for. The entire beach area is surrounded by a pedestrian-only promenade flanked by a collection of high-end and budget hotels. Naama Bay is one of Egypt’s top beaches if you want to spend your vacation sunbathing like a sloth. You won’t even need to leave your little corner of sandy heaven throughout the day, thanks to the great beachside cafes and the abundance of available sun loungers and sunshades.

Hike to Mt.Sinai

Hike to Mt.Sinai - Best places to travel on holiday to Sharm El Sheikh in Egypt - world holiday vibes blog

The Sinai’s rough, hilly interior is inland from the coast’s sun-drenched beaches and is breathtakingly raw. If you go up Mount Sinai, you can get a glimpse of this rocky terrain and see a swath of orange-hued peaks ripple out in front of you. Most tourists leave Sharm el-Sheikh overnight and arrive at the trailhead in the early morning to complete the journey up the Camel Trail in the cool, dark hours and reach the summit in time to view the dawn over the surrounding peaks.

Dive in and greet the Jackson Reef

Dive in and greet the Jackson Reef - Best places to travel on holiday to Sharm El Sheikh in Egypt - world holiday vibes blog

Some of the best diving sites in Sharm el-Sheikh for experienced divers may be found at the Straits of Tiran, in the Gulf of Aqaba, and Jackson Reef is typically on most divers’ lists of things to do when visiting Sharm. The Straits of Tiran group’s northernmost reef is recognised as one of the best places in the region to see hammerhead sharks and manta rays. Numerous soft and hard coral gardens may be found on the reef, and expert divers can investigate the freighter Lara’s wreck.

Spend a day at Dahab

Spend a day at Dahab - Best places to travel on holiday to Sharm El Sheikh in Egypt - world holiday vibes blog

The Sinai’s backpacker beach resort of Dahab lies 90 kilometres north of Sharm el-Sheikh and offers a laid-back contrast to the vacation-package vibe of Sharm el-Sheikh. A little shopping area with a jumble of gift shops weaves its way up to the main roadway while the rocky shoreline is studded with outdoor cafes and eateries. Most visitors that choose to base themselves in Dahab are here for a dive-focused vacation because the diving and snorkelling are superb, and almost all of the nearby dive spots are accessible from the shore. But the relaxed environment of Dahab also makes it a fantastic day trip from Sharm el-Sheikh.

Hop and Shop at Sharm Old Market

Hop and Shop at Sharm Old Market - Best places to travel on holiday to Sharm El Sheikh in Egypt - world holiday vibes blog

Sharm Old Market is where you can find plenty of glittering Arabic lanterns, conventional shisha pipes, and elegantly etched woodwork. The best time to visit is just before dusk or afterwards when the sweltering heat of the day has subsided, and you may shop and browse comfortably. Egyptian handicrafts are less expensive here than in other Sharm el-Sheikh retail areas.

It’s great for supper and a night stroll because it’s full of affordable and lively coffee shops and restaurants. The eateries in this region of Sharm el-Sheikh make it one of the greatest places to find traditional Egyptian cuisine.

Shark’s Bay Snorkeling

Shark's Bay Snorkeling - Best places to travel on holiday to Sharm El Sheikh in Egypt - world holiday vibes blog

Shark’s Bay is one of Sharm El Sheikh’s top snorkelling locations, which shouldn’t be missed. Shark’s Bay is remote on the Red Sea’s stunningly blue waters. Due to the vivid underwater life and laid-back ambience, this beach is certainly one of the most popular and attractive in the region. This beach is close to the well-known diving location of Ras Nasrani and is also quite close to the Sharm El Sheikh international airport.

Holidays can be expensive, but booking cheap flight tickets can ease your hurdle. After visiting the temples and tombs in the rest of the country, Sharm el-Sheikh is a fantastic choice for a beach getaway, whether you’re here for the sand or the marine life. Have a full-breeze holiday!
