I agree with the night life bit but personally Quad bike's £50 and it's a waist of time you have to follow in a line, Bedouin nights please, as for the horse's no thanks they look to ill to carry anyone. I'm back there in September Diving and night life only please.

But the way its going Sharm is going to end up like Magaloof (can't spell it)

See you in Sharm soon.
We actually just got back on Sunday after a great week's diving, with good weather (except for the rain on Sunday!).
It was made even better by the fact we had half board, so didn't need to venture out of the hotel and "experience" what Sharm had to offer in the evenings.

(I'd recommend the Sharm Inn Amarein)

That was our 3rd trip and will probably be the last shore based one there for a while.

I agree with Sean in that it is definitely becoming more of a resort type destination, and believe the number of divers on our flight could probably be counted on one hand.

Liveaboard for me next time methinks...time to try some different sites and get further away than the day boat crowds.

Good idea. I recommend trying the southern part of the Red Sea if you're going for a liveaboard. Try either St. Jones or Brothers-Deadelus-Elphinstone.

Quad bike's £50? They ripped you off!
What is Magaloof? Is this in Egypt?
