The coast from Hamata to Berenice is an area of blissful wilderness. The latest holiday destination in the Red Sea boasts nearly 100km of unspoilt coast, belonging to the beautiful Wadi el Gemal National Park. Here, tented camps and just a few resorts host those who love the remoteness and quietness of the area. The coast is a fusion of alternating fringing reefs and white sand beaches, offering a paradise both for snorkellers and kite surfers. Top surf centres in the main coastal cities organise adventurous kitesurfing safaris, where surfers sleep in tented camps and hop from beach to beach seeking the ultimate kite surf experience, amidst breathtaking views of totally unspoilt nature. Shallow white sand beaches and constant wind the whole year round attract a number of surfer enthusiats. The area is famous as well for excellent snorkelling. One of the best spots along the coast is the bay of Abu Dabab, home to the elusive but friendly dugong, often seen while snorkelling or scuba diving. |
