Egypt - Marsa Alam holidays

introduction to Marsa Alam

Brilliant for sun-seekers and scuba-lovers, relaxed Marsa Alam on Egypt's Red Sea Coast is perfect for revelling in the sun, sea and sand. Peaceful in atmosphere, the resort sits around a charming old fishing village and is made up of luxury hotels sprinkled along a sugary-sand beach fringed by bright, azure seas. Some of Egypt's most beautiful coral reefs are offshore, whilst further out and accessible on diving trips, is spectacular Elphinstone Reef with its amazing 70-foot high drops. Back on land, the old quarter boasts a pretty restaurant- and shop-lined seafront and if you fancy discovering more of the Red Sea's natural beauty, take an exciting game fishing trip, dolphin-spotting cruise or thrilling desert safari.
