Marsa Alam Holidays - Resort Guide

Marsa Alam has grown from a small fishing village to one of the most popular resorts in Egypt in a matter of years. The opening of the new International Airport has meant that more and more holidaymakers are being drawn to this magnificent resort. Located on the West Coast of the Red Sea and similar to the ever popular Sharm el Sheikh, in fact it is believed that Mars Alam Holidays are such that it will overtake Sharm El Sheikh as the number one resort on the red sea. Situated on the Tropic of Cancer where the Arabian Desert meets the Red Sea, it has the appearance of a tropical paradise with its palm trees, mangroves and sea coasts fringed with barrier coral reefs.

A paradise for all and especially those who love the water with the crystal-clear water, perfect for scuba diving or snorkelling if you prefer. A feature of Red Sea holidays is the excellent beaches and amazing views across desert terrain, which more than adequately compliment the enormous appeal of the Red Sea. One of the main Red Sea holiday resorts is Hurghada, which plays host to much of the nightlife in the Red Sea area of Egypt. Marsa Alam Hotels are dotted around the turquoise waters of Coraya Bay. Days are generally spent relaxing in the sunshine or exploring the unspoilt coral reef, packed full of stunning marine life. Most Hotels offer excursions to some of Egypt’s historical sites, but with a location such as Marsa Alam why would you want to venture anywhere else?
