The
simplicity of sun, sea and sand. The luxury of five-star hotels,
water sports, shopping and entertainment. This is Sharm el-Sheikh,
one of the most accessible and developed tourist resort communities
on the Sinai peninsula. All around are Bedouins, colorful tents,
mountains and sea. There are small, intimate hotels with modern
designs, as well as larger hotel complexes belonging to International
chains, plus about all the amenities one could expect of a tourist
center, including casinos, discos and nightclubs, golf courses and
health facilities. In fact, with diving and snorkeling, windsurfing
and other water sports, horses and camel riding, desert safaris,
and great nearby antiquities attractions, it is almost impossible
for a visitor to ever suffer from boredom.
