Adventure Holidays In Egypt |
Egypt is a land where coral-rich reefs, white sandy beaches, lofty mountains and arid deserts merge seamlessly with mysterious ancient monuments and shadowy archaeological sites. The Nile , the world's longest river, flows through Egypt on its way to the Mediterranean Sea , but most of Egypt is a convergence of deserts. The highest lands are in the south where rocky outlooks slope gently toward the Mediterranean Sea, but it is the Sinai Peninsular that adventure travellers return to time and again. A triangular area of sandy coastal plains and impressive mountains where adventurous travellers head inland, it is also the setting for the warm waters of the Red Sea, an underwater playground of exquisite coral reefs and multi-coloured fish.
ADVENTURE SPORTS IN EGYPT
From the coral ridges of the Straits of Tiran to Ras Mohammed park, the peaceful waters of the southern coast of Sinai lays claim to some of the world’s most amazing dive sites. An underwater paradise for scuba divers and snorkellers alike, the Red Sea offers superb visibility, abundant and diverse fish life, countless varieties of hard and soft coral, year-round comfortable water temperatures, spectacular shipwreck destinations, sunny weather and pleasant air temperatures, and easy access to diving locations. White sandy beaches with consistent winds year-round can’t be beat for kite surfing and wind-surfing, and if water-skiing is your thing, you won’t be disappointed.
ADVENTURE SPORTS AREAS AND REGIONS IN EGYPT
Best spots for kite surfing and wind surfing
Check out the resorts of Safaga, Hurghada, and El Gouna for their great conditions for learners and experienced riders alike. Wind blows all year in the charming bay of Safaga , while in Hurghada there are three bays - the downwind one is popular with windsurfers and the two upwind ones with large shallow areas are popular with kite surfers. El Gouna’s kite surfing zones are spread over shallow transparent, flat areas.
Best spots for diving & snorkelling
Sharm-El Sheik and Dahab are just two spectacular dive sites along thousands of kilometres of Red Sea coastline blessed with extensive reef formations and islands. The underwater scenery is rich with over 400 varieties of coral and 1500 species of fish, turtle and shark that make the Red Sea their home. If wreck diving is more your thing, pick and choose between Ras Mohammed, Tiran and SS Thistlegorm in the Red Sea .
