An enviable location on the southern end of the Sinai Peninsula and year-round warm weather boost tourism in Sharm El Sheikh and make it one of Egypt's premier travel destinations.

On a holiday in Sharm El Sheikh, you can spend your days lazing on the warm sand or by the hotel pool--keep the nights reserved for the cafes and nightclubs that light up the downtown area. If you tire of the resort lifestyle, day trip opportunities abound in Sharm El Sheikh, from tours of Mount Sinai or Luxor, to quad biking in the desert and explorations of various dive sites.
