Sharks Bay holidays:
When you want to experience a truly memorable adventure and enjoy your cheap holiday treat in
Sharm to the extreme, then the place to go is Sharks Bay. Located north of
Naama Bay, this small bay boasts of rugged shoreline and a irregular steppes below the surface that many divers find a little bit more challenging than the usual dive spots in Sharm. Sharks Bay is also a known habitation of the red fish, called “lyretail coralfish” which experts believe is the reason it is named the Red Sea. The reef itself is breathtaking and amuses even the most experienced divers. For adventure-hunters, the bay will be perfect to give you a piece of the action as you will see either a barracuda, a spotted eagle or even a shark (thus its name) hovering under the calm seas.
Shark Bay makes up for its smallness by having the best diving spot in all of
Egypt. Beyond the blue waters are the sloping reefs covered in fan-like corals. It has all the challenging features for a novice to advanced diver. There is also a designated area for tourists who would like to have just casual, relaxed snorkeling. Many tourists prefer to train first at the Shark Bay Camp and Dive Center before fitting into their diving gear and plunging into the 85-feet deep coral reefs.
As if the beauty of the underwater world is not enough, Shark Bay also offers water sports adventure, such as wind surfing and water skiing. Rental of sports equipment and gear are available at the same outlets where you get the diving gears. There are also
beach resorts
and
hotels that offer free use of its waters sports equipment. The beach resorts, villas and
cheap hotels lining the Shark Bay all have class A cuisine and can pamper one’s soul to the extreme. Such pleasures after a long day underwater are the very reasons why tourists kept coming back to this small but beautiful place.
