About Charm el-Cheikh

Charm el-Cheikh, au sud du Sinaï : station de la mer Rouge réputée pour ses récifs, ses montagnes désertiques et son soleil en toute saison.

La côte est bordée de baies d'hôtels comme Naama Bay, le centre animé avec sa promenade de restaurants et de bars, et les plus calmes Sharks Bay et Nabq. Le vrai trésor se trouve sous l'eau : les récifs coralliens arrivent jusqu'au rivage, grouillant de poissons colorés, de tortues et de raies.
