Passing Through Rocky Hills, the Glittering Waters of the Red Sea Soon Come Into View and the Rugged Bulk of the Sinai Peninsula Looms Through the Haze On the Opposite Shore. a Vibrant Beach Resort, Hurghada is By No Means a Typical ‘adventure Destination’, and Snorkelling Here is a Great Way to Round Off the Trip.
