  • Enjoy Jakarta Golf
    Backstory Where Ancient Meets Modern – the Egypt Golf Backstory Play golf in the land of the pharaohs – from historic Cairo to the eternal blue skies of the Red Sea Playing golf in Egypt is like teeing up nowhere else on earth. Its fairways are laced with history, some within sight of one of the Seven Wonders of the World and close to one of the cradles of civilisation, Cairo. Others offer a kaleidoscope of colours, their verdant fairways, tees and greens contrasting with parched desert sands and the azure waters of the Red Sea, sparkling under vivid blue skies 365 days of the year. Egypt’s golf roots date back to the 19th century when the first courses were built by the British. Yet, today, golfers can tee it up on world-class new courses, several created by some of golf’s most famous designers, and with practice and teaching facilities to rival many established golf destinations. Luxury hotels alongside some of them offer sumptuous accommodation, spas, fine dining and leisure and recreation facilities that appeal to non-golfing partners and families as well as to the golfers themselves. Beyond the fairways, exciting adventure options range from deep-sea fishing, windsurfing or scuba diving among coral reefs alive with fish to 4x4 safaris and camel rides through the desert. Explore Old Cairo and marvel at the mighty Pyramids of Giza, try haggling in a souk, seek out excellent restaurants. After dark, pump up the volume with the vibrant nightlife of Egypt’s Red Sea resorts and the versatility of Cairo’s Nightlife, which truly is a city that never sleeps.

  • Oksana Romaniv, Dina Yarmolyk the RED SEA AS TOURIST
    Oksana Romaniv, Dina Yarmolyk THE RED SEA AS TOURIST DESTINATION Oksana Romaniv1 Dina Yarmolyk2 DOI: https://doi.org/10.30525/978-9934-26-077-3-5 Abstract. Attracted by the rich marine life and favorable climate, tourism has become important for many Red Sea countries, with over 1 million tourists per year expected in the future. Extensive areas of the coastline have been developed to accommodate the increasing flux of tourists, especially in Aqaba of Jordan, the Jeddah coastline of Saudi Arabia and various areas along the Egyptian coastline. Many researchers have described the development of tourism on the Red Sea coast. But there are few publications about the possibilities of tourism development on the basis of water resources of the Red Sea. It is therefore very important to explore the possibilities of development of water tourism in the Red Sea. Through recent decades, significant advances in technology and the increase in international travel have made marine environments more accessible both in real and economic terms. Coastal and marine tourism has become a huge business that forms a significant component of the growing global tourism industry. The number of tourists attractions is not only determined by the capacity of the attractions themselves, but also by four other components: natural resources and environment; socially-economic environment; transportation; cultural resources. It discusses the concept of sustainable tourism development in the area, which leads to management of all resources in such a way that economic, social and natural needs can be fulfilled while maintaining culture integrity, essential ecological processes, biological diversity and life support systems.

Do you dream of acres of warm turquoise flat water, perfect for improving your freestyle, learning your first jump or just learning full-stop? Then look no further than Soma Bay in Egypt. The flight time isn’t too bad, the time difference neg- ligible and the airport transfer from Hurghada only an hour. I had my first kite lessons while travelling but kept having bad luck with the wind. When having a whinge with one of my instructors she told me her favourite kiting spot was Soma Bay. A quick bit of research on the internet and I added a stopover to Egypt on the way home. Having stayed in hostels and backpackers while travelling I thought I’d just turn up in Safaga, the nearest town to the kite spots, and find a cheap hotel. Well things have changed since 2005 and I know people who have stayed in the town recently, but back then everything was rather more basic, so for the first time in my life I booked into one of the all-inclusive hotels that the Red Sea is renowned for.
