Shark's Bay, Egypt: Average Review Ratings

Weather

We went early December and still came back with decent tans.

Quite breezy during the day but warm enough to sunbathe, although the Egyptians thought we were mad- they were all wrapped up.

Night time was quite chilly: cardigans or jackets advisable.

Holiday

Brilliant holiday as always.

We've been to various resorts in Egypt but this was one of the best.

Staff at the Hilton Sharks Bay Deluxe were fantastic: couldn't expect more of them.

The hotel and grounds were well kept and very clean and there was plenty of choice in the restaurant.

Don't expect English food as you are in Egypt not Spain! So annoying when people complain they want the food to be the same as at home.

Lovely to see Shamel, restaurant supervisor again (met at the Hilton Dreams 6 years ago). He knew who we were straight away and made us welcome again. Be back to see you soon Shammy.

During the day it was nice to go to the Sunshine bar at the resort side of the hotel,have a bar snack and chill whilst looking out over the bay.

Such a relaxing holiday; love Egypt and the people: they're always up for a bit of fun.

Places Recommended

Soho square, lovely place with a chance to walk round at your leisure. No hassle off anyone, unlike Naama Bay.

Yes

Weather

Great weather even at this time of the year. Not humid like Barbados but hot enough for swimming, snorkelling and a tan, with a lovely breeze to keep you from overheating.

Holiday

It was a great 7 days. Visit to Ras Mohammed National Park by boat for 3 reef snorkelling stops. Swam with Dolphins at a town location (strangely located and not the best but worth going!)
Naama Bay was very much like Blackpool in some parts but the sea front was nice. Not as much hassle here as there is in Tunisia.
Didn't do nightlife as sunshine is best from 8am till 3pm.

Places Recommended

Don't pay more than 50 Egypt Pounds for a taxi from Shark's Bay/Soho Square.
Agree the price before you get in the blue & white cabs.
Didn't do the big trips (pyramids etc..) as we went to chill out and get a sun tan.

Weather

The weather was fantastic if you like it hot. Never a cloud in the sky.There was a soft breeze during the morning which was lovely.Considering it was very hot the heat is bearable to sunbathe in for most of the day. Dont think you can beat Egypts weather unlike if you go to Spain or some where you got more of a chance it raining on you.

Holiday

Holiday was great can't really fault it. Sharks Bay is a lovely place for couples and familys. I wouldn't recommend Naama Bay especially at night all you get is hassled from every angle cant escape it i was soon in a taxi back to soho square sharks bay which is more chilled out.

Places Recommended

Cleo Park, snorkeling is great there is some amazing fish in the sea. Swimming with the dolphins and dolphin show.
