Marinated meats are lowered into the oven on long metal skewers and cooked in this smoky and extremely hot environment until done” – he continues.
Minstry of Sound Red Sea's Launch at Pacha Sharm
Wow! What a fantastic night!
Ministry of Sound's Red Sea resident DJ Timo opened the proceedings with one of the best warm up sets I've ever heard. Yousef followed with some of the dirtiest progressive and tech house, and he blew everone away with his technical skills with the FX unit.
I followed Yousef and played till close, where 2000+ clubbers were screaming for one more - it took the security over an hour to get everyone to leave - eventually the police came into the club as nobody would go!!!
Water Sports
There is a variety of water sports in Sharm. You can enjoy them at your hotel beach or other beaches around town. Wake boarding, water skiing, wind and kite surfing are all available here.
Naama Bay
This is a must go for at least one of the days that you are on holiday. It is better to go at night than day but bear in mind it is quite a long walk into Naama from the main road. Naama is full of a little bit of everything from restaurants, bars and cafes to night club, shops and bazaars. Shopping here is more bazaars-like bargaining souvenir shopping. It’s an enjoyable experience if you like spending time picking the smallest details in every item. For sure, there are loads that you can buy here.
Near Garden
The Near Garden is located northeast of Na'ama Bay, and as its name suggests, is nearer to Na'ama Bay than Middle Garden (located east) and Far Garden located even further to the east just before the mainland swings back to the west. Near Garden has a gentle slope which falls away to 20-25m and is a combination of sand and colourful coral formations and outcrops. If you head south from this slope it drops away on an increasingly steep curve until you reach 50m and beyond. Current is rarely a consideration here and this makes it ideal for night dives from Na'ama bay, or safari boats.
