Shopping

posted by lfoster on 8 December 2010 at 15:48

There are lots of ok places to shop but i'd say the places to look out for are the spice shops, there's a great one just off the main shopping street, and the egyptian oils shop, they smell divine and can be used for body or incense. Don't forget to haggle, you can do it!

Semi-Submarine

posted by fsullivan on 8 December 2010 at 15:47

I love diving but my wife, her sister and husband are more fans of seeing fish from the dry so one day we went out on the semi-submarine which lets you sit in the comfort of seats and look at the fish living on the reef. There are so many and their colours are just beautiful, this is a great way to see them.

We arranged it through our travel agency and we got picked up from our hotel

Marine Boulevard

A brand-new and wonderful place to go in the evenings, such a choice of places to eat and amazing entertainment to really spice up the evening. We saw fire juggling, BMX tricks and break dancing and that was just in one week!

Sharm El Naga Bay

posted by pwardle on 8 December 2010 at 15:45

This is the most amazing place i've ever been to! I've never seen water so shallow yet so full of fish, you can just sit and let them swin round you for ages, or do a bit of gentle snorkelling if you're feeling really wild. Perfect when you can't be bothered with tanks/gear/wetsuits etc

where, when, how, web
30km south of hurghada

Encounter Zone

posted by fmull on 8 December 2010 at 15:28

My kids are too pale to be out in the sunshine so over lunch we explored the best of the entertainment that the malls had to offer, and this was the most universally popular. There's a myriad of things to do from a roller coaster to a 360 degree simulator and a haunted house!

Al Garhoud Bridge Road, Wafi City Mall
