Just under 6 hours flight time from Ireland – Egypt is a taste of the exotic just within reach for those looking for the perfect family holiday or couples looking for a bit of exploration. Here you will find top resorts for lazing on the beach including Sharm el Sheikh, with its mix of long white sand and excellent facilities for water sports.

What to do on holidays in Egypt

The Red Sea coast is the number one spot for beach holidays. The resort of Sharm el Sheikh is a firm favorite for holidaymakers with crystal clear waters and long beaches that are perfect for lazy days soaking up the sun. There is also plenty here to keep families entertained – jet skiing, scuba diving or snorkeling are a must if you want to experience all this destination has to offer! Ras Mohammed Park is world-renowned for its marine life and corals and is often seen a world hot-spot for divers.

For couples looking to spend some quality time together there is also the quieter resorts of Hurghada and El Gouna. Here you can experience more traditional markets and really get a feel for the Egyptian culture. With their great food and history these resorts really do come in to their own and are not to be missed.

Holidays to Egypt wouldn’t be complete unless you experienced some of the top attractions – yes there is the ancient architecture and the Pyramids, but just as important is experiencing the food and day-to-day culture; best seen in the local food markets where ‘spice’ is the name of the game. For entertainment and nightlife there is Naama Bay where you’ll be met with the bright lights and cosmopolitan buzz of this tourist hot-spot. For shopping there is also ‘Old-Town Sharm’, where you can by authentic souvenirs to remember your holiday to Egypt for years to come.

All togheter nice place with beautiful reefs, colorful fishes and friendly people. Very cheap, if you can haggle
All the time you need to ask how much that costs, before you use something (doctor, taxi, ride a camel or food etc.., because it can be very expensive)
