Soma Bay

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Soma Bay [1] is a coastal resort on the Red Sea in Egypt. 45 kilometers South from Hurghada International Airport (4 hours flight from Central Europe), the ten million square meters, self-contained community of Soma Bay is a peninsula surrounded on all sides by the sea. About 5 km in length and 2 km wide, the Peninsula is accessed via a 7 km private road through a single controlled entry gate.

Soma Bay is for those seeking a beach, diving, golf or spa holiday. Soma Bay features some of the best Red Sea diving with its house reef and a variety of nearby diving sites. The 3 resorts (Sheraton, Robinson Club and La Residence des Cascades) also have access to an 18 hole, par 72 championship golf course and golf academy designed by Gary Player. Soma Bay also features one of the largest spas and thalassotherapy centers in the region. Watersports are particularly popular due to the prevailing winds perfect for windsurfing, kitesurfing and sailing.
