Of course diving holidays to Sharm El Sheikh are all the rage though the area is popular with snorkelers too.  Don't worry if you aren't an experienced diver there are plenty of great diving schools to help you learn the basics or improve your skills. You can find plenty of things to do outside the water though if you are so inclined and Sharm El Sheikh offers great mountain views in addition to the beautiful waters.

Those that are hale and hardy might enjoy the Moses Mountain Climb. One word of advice is this: this is not a tour for the faint of heart. You need to be in excellent shape in order to manage this three hour climb though many feel that the view from the top is well worth the labor and effort of getting there. If you aren't in decent physical shape though this could prove a painful experience. Families also enjoy the Dolphin show that is held daily to the delight of young and old alike. Shopping is also popular in Sharm El Sheikh so set aside some of the funds you saved by planning cheap holidays to Sharm El Sheikh so that you can go shopping in Old Sharm while you visit
