Sharm el-Sheikh is one of the most accessible and developed tourist resort communities on the Sinai peninsula, in South Sinai Governorate, Egypt, on the coastal strip between the Red Sea and Mount Sinai.. All around are Bedouins, colorful tents, mountains and sea. Plus all the amenities one could expect of a tourist center, including casinos, discos and nightclubs, golf courses and health facilities. In fact, with diving and snorkeling, windsurfing and other water sports, horses and camel riding, desert safaris, and great nearby antiquities attractions, it is almost impossible for a visitor to ever suffer from boredom.
