Sharm El-Sheikh.. Live the Luxury

CAIRO - 17 July 2017: Sharm El-Sheikh is one of the places that should be on your bucket list, not only for its wonderful weather in winter, but also because it’s the cheapest destination for a vacation full of joy, white sands, glass-clear water and outstanding night life.

Soho Square

White Knights Bay in Sharm El-Sheikh is home to Soho Square, a one-stop entertainment complex for the whole family. It is literally the coolest place in Sharm: Kids can glide across the ice skating rink while the grown-ups pop into the Ice Bar, where seats, tables and even the glasses are carved out of ice. The complex also includes bowling, an arcade and dozens of restaurants, bars and cafes.

When you’re done with sun and fun, it’s time for the spa. There’s no better place to enjoy thalassotherapy, which uses seawater and marine plants for therapeutic purposes, than the Red Sea. In Sharm, that means the Sheraton Sharm Thalasso Center, which offers complete packages and a la carte services.

Check the Wrecks

The Thistlegorm is Sharm El-Sheikh’s most famous shipwreck, but it is by no means the only one. Ask your dive center about liveaboard excursions that make the rounds of dive sites in the Straits of Gubal (Gulf of Suez) as well as Ras Mohammed (Gulf of Aqaba). Among the boats lost to the deep are the Dunraven, a Victorian-era steamer; the freighter Giannis D, which sank in 1983; the British cargo ship Carnatic, which sank in 1869; the freighter Chrisoula K, which sank in 1981; and the coal ship Rosalie Moller, sunk by a bomb during World War II.
