Highlights of
the Red Sea:
Sinai: is the land of discovery. It is where Isis
sought Osiris and the Pharaohs found gold. It is where Moses witnessed the Burning Bush
and the Bedouins camped by Crusader forts. Sinai is the meeting point for three great
religions, at the crossroads of Africa and Asia.
Mount Sinai: where the wandering Israelites worshipped
the golden calf, and 2285m high looms the mountain where Moses is said to have received
the Ten Commandments from God.
Sharm el-Sheikh: is the simplicity of sun, sea and sand.
The luxury of five-star hotels, water sports, shopping and entertainment. Has the best
reefs and facilities in Egypt.
Ras Mohamed: is a world famous paradise of coral gardens and tropical fish.
Port Said: at the north end of the Suez Canal and with town beaches along Mediterranean,
it prospers owing to its duty-free status.
Safaga island: This island in the red Sea is a must if you want to get away
from it all.
Suez: is now a largely rebuilt industrial center after being badly affected by the
1967 and 1973 wars with Israel |
