Have a look on Trip Advisor. We've taken quite a bit of advice from 'Barry72', and we are off to Marsa Alam on the 1st April.
I'll be happy to let you know how we get on as well

Kayla - thankyou - will look forward to hearing how you get on. Have a lovely holiday!

We went to Marsa Alam last year (may 08) and had a fantastic time. There is not alot to do but the resort has a lot being built so should be more this year. If your going to relax then you'll be just fine!! There are also the usual trips etc from tour operators.

9 weeks today and Brayka Bay here we come. It may be a quiet area but I have made a list of the many activities I will be persuing.

Relaxing

Snorkeling

Eating

Almost forgot, I might have a drink too;)

It's a great place to unwind and recharge but on the AI topic, it is expensive for drinks atleast comparable to city prices in the UK. I find worrying about the costs gets in the way of my relaxing so it's AI for me.

Barry - sounds like my kind of holiday! Any room in your suitcase!!!

I have been to the Kahramana & the Coraya Beach resort in Marsa Alam. Liked the Kahramana but loved the Coraya, so much so we are going back in July for another 2 weeks. Any question please ask.
