The Peninsula of Soma Bay is about 5km in length and 2km wide, located on the Red Sea Riviera, surrounded by crystal clear waters. In the summer the temperature ranges from 30°-36°, in the winter 20°-28° and Soma Bay can boast some of the most beautiful beaches in the Red Sea. Soma Bay captures the essence of Egypt`s Red Sea Riviera. Located on the dreamy Ras Abou Soma peninsula, this self-contained complex of luxury hotels will please you no end if you're hot on sun, sea and sand. The only dilemma of the day will be whether to lounge on the flawless beaches or expend your energies on the myriad of watersports on offer. The nearby exotic reefs are an aquatic wonderland of soft coral pillars swirling with shoals of barracuda and the occasional cruising turtle. If you prefer your pleasures above water, the adrenalin-rush of catamaran sailing and windsurfing will tempt you into the calm waters of the bay, letting you get your fill of the jaw-dropping views around you.
When you're not indulging your sporting whims at the beach, there's always the new golf complex, designed by Gary Player himself. If you're a keen golfer, teeing off at this sun-soaked 18-hole course while being gently cooled by soft Red Sea breezes is a fairway to heaven. And just in case you're still in need of luxury, head for the health and spa centre at your hotel for a pampering massage or whirlpool session.
Why not take a trip to Luxor to marvel at its awe-inspiring tableau of ancient treasures and temples, or rummage around the shops of Hurghada for bargains to take back home. What more could a holiday offer?
