Egypt Ancient
Why Egypt is the jewel of the Mediterranean
If asked about your favourtite family holiday on the Mediterranean, maybe it would be Italy, or even Spain? Many holiday makers are choosing Egypt as their first choice of destination. This may seem unbelievable, but think of the available coastline of the Mediterranean Egypt has to offer. The northern coast stretches from Alexadria in the east to the Libyan border to the west.
There is plenty on offer for luxury holidays in an area which still boasts its fair share of original and authentic villages. Some of the rich and diverse history of the country is represented in the village of Al-Hamman, built by the Greeks 2,700 years ago. it is famous for its cistern, one of many build by the Romans in the second century. The lively and colourful market originally catered for the needs of pilgrims. It has now become a commercial centre for the new holiday villages and resorts. Sidi Abdel Rahman is another popular Egypt holidays destination, which boast stunning white sandy beaches and clear seawater. The downside to the northern resorts would be the inconsistency of climate.
In the southern resorts of Sharm El-Sheikh and Hurghada there is an all year round warm climate and plenty of activities.
Sharm El-Sheikh, the ‘City of Peace’, was once a quiet fishing village until as recently as 1968. It is nearly unrecognizable today, and is now one of the most frequenly visited resorts in Egypt. It is the centre of the country’s diving industry, and boasts some of the best luxury hotels in Egypt. The water is crystal clear, and the underwater scenery is stunning. A large variety of fish live within the confines of the beautiful reefs, which are clearly visible when diving. It’s not necessary to be an experienced diver to enjoy this sort of fun. All the wonders are visible just using a snokel off the coast. But there are plenty of challenges for all levels, including the more accomplished scuba diver.
