FAQs
Sharm El Sheikh is located in Egypt, on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula along the Red Sea coast. It lies between the Gulf of Suez and the Gulf of Aqaba, making it a prime location for tourism, especially for diving and snorkelling due to its rich marine life and coral reefs. As one of Egypt’s most popular resort towns, Sharm El Sheikh makes up part of the South Sinai Governorate.
Take a dip in one of our four outdoor pools, explore both fine-dining options and quick meals at one of our 12 restaurants, or indulge in a rejuvenating massage or facial at The Spa. Staying active is easy when you’re this close to the Red Sea – we offer an array of water sports, diving excursions and yacht charters. Family amenities and babysitting services are also available to you as our guest. Learn more on our Services & Amenities page.
