Sharm El Sheikh - Red Sea

The Red Sea, Egypt provides UK divers with the closest coral reefs and clear blue water. The sea temperature in February is warm and the weather pleasant and sunny. It is an excellent destination to escape from the winter chills of Britain at an attractive price. Visibility is good and the variety of fish species and corals is huge.

The Rosetta is very popular and is conveniently situated with Emperor Divers on site. The shops and restaurants of Naama Bay are only a few minutes' walk away and the beach area is a short distance from the hotel. With recent renovations and new rooms built it represents good value and offers a range of facilities including four pools. Sharm el Sheikh is an established resort on the Red Sea situated on the southernmost tip of the Sinai peninsular. The town has a bazaar; a variety of local restaurants and many stylish shops arranged along an attractive sea front promenade. Our hotel is just five minutes walk from the promenade and the palm fringed sandy beach skirting the Naama Bay area. It is just 10 minutes bus ride from the airport.

Diving is organised from boats with Emperor Divers. Divers are picked up and taken to the boats each morning.
