Curator’s statement

Sharm El Sheikh is the perfect destination whether you're craving a tranquil beach escape or an adventurous dive into water sports like snorkeling and scuba diving. If you're a fan of all-inclusive resorts, this is definitely the place for you. It provided the ideal retreat from the bustle of Cairo, offering a serene and luxurious experience during my three-day, two-night stay.

Where to stay

Unlock perks by contacting Grace to book your trip.

Day 1: Settle into your Resort

A bed with white bedding and tall, gray headboard in a hotel room.

Settle into your resort and relax on the beach until dinner time. Most flights in from Cairo arrive in the late afternoon.

Day 2: Diving Excursion or Beach Day

Blue beach chairs and umbrellas on a beach.

Full day diving excursion or beach day at Naama Bay. Pro tip: in this resort town, numerous tour companies operate. Diving requires advance booking, while boat rides can be booked on the day of the trip. During the off-peak season, last-minute bookings are more flexible.

Day 3: Relax and Private Boat Ride

View of ocean from beach with boats and people swimming.

Relax at the pool and then go on a private boat ride in the Red Sea that include snorkeling, which can be booked through the hotel.

Need to know

Essential reminder: Stay hydrated! The intense heat and sun can be draining. Prioritize your well-being.
