Sharm is a man-made sea-side resort, about 40 mins end to end, by taxi & is divided into 3 main areas where there are shops, bars & restaurants, namely the up & coming Nabq (a long main street with shops, hotels & development ongoing) Na’ama Bay (built in the 1990s & considered by some as the centre) & the Ras Um Sid / Hadaba area, where the “old” market is situated. It’s only “old” in comparison to Na’ama as that area was built in the 1980s. Hotels situated in other parts of Sharm may not have many facilities within walking distance so visitors will have to travel into one of the areas named above.

In addition to these 3 established areas, there is also:

New complex, Soho Square, White Knight’s Bay, Sharm (near the Savoy hotel & airport) This is more “up-market” than the rest of Sharm & prices reflect this.
