Makadi Bay holidays - relaxed beach paradise on Red Sea Riviera
Makadi Bay is an exclusive, laid-back Red Sea resort, 26 km south of the larger, livelier resort of Hurghada. Beautifully appointed, luxury hotels have arrived here in recent decades to facilitate European holiday visitors seeking all-year-round sun, great beaches and excellent snorkelling and diving opportunities. Makadi Bay itself is small and self-contained, offering a choice of three, four and five star hotels, holiday apartments, restaurants, swimming pools and most importantly a stunning beach of soft, white sand, and warm, turquoise water. Makadi Bay is the ideal spot for snorkelling, scuba diving, sailing and windsurfing. Because the coral found in the shallow water is environmentally protected, beach jetties have been built to allow easy access to the sea for swimming.
Makadi Bay - close to thriving holiday centre of Hurghada
Makadi Bay’s larger neighbour, Hurghada, is considered the most cosmopolitan of the Red Sea resorts. Built along a spectacular coastline from Safaga in the south to El Gouna in the north, Hurghada attracts both watersports enthusiasts and sun-worshipping beach lovers. Within easy reach of Makadi Bay by shuttle bus, Hurghada is worth a visit for its markets, restaurants and an interesting old town to explore. There is also a museum and aquarium. Snorkelling and diving around Makadi Bay won’t fail to impress. The Red Sea is blessed with colourful coral gardens and equally colourful and abundant tropical fish. Many of the hotels at Makadi Bay boast breath-taking views across the clear waters of the Red Sea, facing out towards Saudi Arabia. The scenery here is also shaped by the mountain ranges and dunes of the Eastern Desert.
Makadi Bay holidays - experience historic, exhilarating Egypt
Your stay in Makadi Bay will be enhanced by excursions to experience the fascinating landscape and ancient historic sites this magical Middle Eastern country has to offer. The iconic River Nile slices through the desert plains that dominate the land, passing through Cairo with its Great Pyramids, Luxor and the Valley of the Kings, and Aswan in the south with it ancient twin temples. In the north, where the Nile Delta finally reaches the Mediterranean, stands the beautiful city of Alexandria. A family break or couple’s holiday in Egypt is just five hours flying time from the UK. Arabic is the most widely spoken language, while English is understood in most beach resorts like Makadi Bay.
