The old part of dubai is sooooo different from the modern bling you see pretty much eveywhere. It's really amamzing to see the old buildings and to try to imagine a time when everything looked like that.

Bur Dubai, between 3rd street and roadway 84

Underwater Gardens

posted by fkettlewell on 22 October 2010 at 14:10

My husband loves scuba but I just can't get into it, although I love reefs and fish etc. My solution? I went a couple of times to see the underwater gardens on a glass-bottomed boat, which was amazing, and then i spent the rest of the holiday sunbathing!

where, when, how, web
Take a boat tour from the beach.

Red Sea Aquarium

posted by mcarter on 22 October 2010 at 14:10

I love scuba but sometimes I get the feeling that i'm missing some of the best fish or i don't get to look at them closely enough. So on my last day last time I went to hurghada I went to the aquarium. It was really great there they had loads of fish, some familiar and some not so, all nicely labelled. Excellent.

where, when, how, web
Just by the hospital in the north of hurghada

Hurghada National Museum

posted by rfuller on 22 October 2010 at 14:06

I came to Hurghada for the reefs but was pretty loath to miss out on all the Egyptian history whilst I was there so I was really pleased to find the national museum. It's not the largest place but there are some great bits in there and you really get a sense of the long history of the area.

where, when, how, web
Right on the coast, pretty central, sorry i don't have a street name but people will be able to tell you!
