One of the best-known diving spots on the Red Sea, Sahl Hasheesh Beach is a premium resort town that is part of tourist-central Hurghada, which stretches for an impressive 40-kilometers along the coast. Known for the vibrancy of its coral and untouched beaches, the area has been steadily developing since the 1980’s to become a burgeoning holiday haven.
Holiday hotels and villages dot the coast along from the beach and are proof of the massive amount of money being poured into the area by investors looking to cash in on the Red Sea resorts. Sahl Hasheesh Beach itself is an attractive spot for water sports enthusiasts, with lots of opportunities to try out windsurfing and yachting as well as diving and snorkeling. It does get hot here, however, with temperatures regularly soaring above 40°C – no wonder most people want to cool down with a refreshing dive!
