Sharm El Sheikh Travel Forum

Am hoping to go to either Sharks bay or Namma bay in August this year (holding on to get a late deal if we can), but would like some advice on what people think of these and which they would reccomend?

I am thinking Sharks Bay as it will be less manic and touristy from what I have read about Naama, but I have also read that there is not much to do in Sharks Bay, although some of the reviews were quite old.

What are the nightlife, resturants, shops, bars, attractions etc like in Sharks Bay? We will be going for two weeks and are hoping to dive and take a couple of days out to see the pyramids but would like to know that there will be enough to keep us occupied day and night for the rest of the holiday if we stay in Sharks Bay.

Has anyone been recenlty and can tell me what you thought of either?

Thanks, Sadie

all the attractions of Sharks Bay are tied to the hotels, rather than to the area like in Naama Bay. I would recommend to stay in Sharks Bay (the sealife and the coral reefs are spectacular there), and go to Naama Bay for nightlife. it is just a 5-7 min. drive and there are plenty of buses/taxis going to Naama. besides, some hotels even provide free of charge trasportation so check with your hotel.
