Famous for its endless sandy beaches, scenic mountains and rich coral reefs, the Red Sea Riviera provides an exquisite destination for an unforgettable holiday.

Located on the Sinai Peninsula of Egypt, Africa, the Red Sea Riviera consists of a number of resort cities lying on the western shore of the Gulf of Aqaba and along the eastern shore of mainland Egypt, south of the Gulf of Suez. Choose from any of the listed popular destinations and enjoy your vacation with Pel Tours this season!

Sharm El-Sheikh

Nestled between the calm shores of the Red Sea and the national park of Ras Mohammed, Sharm el-Sheikh is the jewel of the Sinai Peninsula. For many visitors, the most striking scenery of this region is underwater in the colourful reefs encircling the peninsula. At this most extraordinary diving destination, you can snorkel or dive into an underwater playground of shipwrecks, coral gardens and azure-blue waters.

A multiplicity of hotels, restaurants, shops and bars lend Sharm El-Sheikh a cosmopolitan character. Naama Bay, with its hotels and diving centres, is the main tourist spot, while the resorts of Ras Um Sid, Ras Nasrani, Sharks Bay and Nabq Bay are also popular. Local excursions include diving courses and trips, desert safaris, and trips to Mount Sinai and the St Catherine’s Monastery.

Sharm El-Sheikh also offers great diving trips at the Ras Mohammed National Marine Park, which offers spectacular views of marine life and corals as well as shipwrecks for divers of all standards.

Dahab

Dahab, the Arabic word for gold, truly describes its sun-bathed beaches, which are a combination of soft sand, gorgeous blue water, and a luxuriant strip of palm trees spread all over. Almost 5 miles from town is the famous diving centre – Blue Hole. Towards the Israeli border is the Island of Coral, where the crusaders built a fort and the remains of which can still be seen.

Dahab has grown from a bustling village to an ideal retreat for holidaymakers and divers, wanting to escape from the chaos of everyday life. A 90-minute drive north of Sharm El-Sheikh, this holiday destination is an ideal resort for beginners and advanced divers, providing both shores and boat diving.

Assalah, the most developed part of Dahab, is an assortment of palm trees, campgrounds, shops, hotels, bars, and restaurants that lie along the shore of Ghazala Bay. This Bedouin village has a distinctly bohemian feel, and has some of the most spectacular, unspoiled and pristine dive sites off the Sinai peninsula.
Hurghada

One of Egypt’s foremost resorts, Hurghada has some of the finest underwater corals in the world surrounding the shoreline, making the area a haven for divers and holidaymakers alike. Diving in Hurghada is an excellent experience, and it is an ideal location for advanced divers and those wishing to further their technical diving skills.

From tiny nudibranchs to giant whale sharks, this area has it all for a perfect Red Sea diving holiday: hard and soft coral, turtles and dolphins, mantas and moray eels, napoleons and tuna, and much more, including the wreck graveyard at Sha’ab Abu Nuhas. Other activities include para-sailing, viewing the multi-coloured sea life from glass bottom boats, and deep-sea fishing.

Hurghada offers a wide variety of international cuisine and is famous for its excellent fish restaurants. During the night, this city comes alive with bustling bars, restaurants and clubs, and attracts a younger clientele, although revelers of all ages certainly won’t feel out of place.

El Gouna

Built on small islands and surrounded by lagoons and the Red Sea, El Gouna is a complete holiday destination offering all the amenities required for a relaxing holiday. This resort city offers great shopping, health treatments, and an excellent selection of restaurants, bars, clubs, beautiful beaches and uninhabited islands — all within a 30-minute drive north of Hurghada.

In El Gouna, you can enjoy an unparalleled underwater paradise, travel through the desert, or take a hot-air balloon to experience some of the most beautiful scenery Egypt has to offer. It also has beautiful reefs with a good combination of hard and soft corals.

The city has three beautiful Red Sea beaches: Mangroovy, Zeytoona and Marina Beach. Although they do not have much underwater vegetation, these beaches are very beautiful, and swimming in them is a great experience.

El Quseir

To the south of Hurghada lies El Quesir —a remote, un-commercialised coastal resort. Treasured for its peaceful location, it has become popular among holiday makers keen to experience the historical charm of Egypt yet relish in its slow pace. Inhabited since ancient times, this resort was an important commercial port in Roman times and later again as part of the spice route from India to Britain. It was also an important stopover in the pilgrimage from Egypt to Mecca. The ancient port still remains north of the town, and an Ottoman fort has also been recently restored.

Nuweiba

Nuweiba is a perfect destination for people looking for a quiet resort away from the main tourist areas. It is a small, peaceful area, situated on the shores of the Red Sea, giving easy access to the whole length of the Sinai coastline. This resort offers wonderful golden sandy secluded beaches and coves, stunning mountain scenery and a relaxed way of life.
Nuweiba is an ideal place to learn to dive – with beautiful coral reefs and gardens teeming with life. The area is a haven for photographers as the cerulean waters allow them to focus on the smaller species such as multi-coloured nudibranches. If you are lucky, you may encounter one of the several types of seahorse varieties when diving.
Taba and Taba Heights

Overlooking Jordan, Israel and Saudi Arabia, Taba is a paradise for active holidaymakers and outdoor types who enjoy the diving, surfing, sailing and catamarans, as well as walking or motorbike tours in the mountains. Recently, this city has experienced a growth spurt on its coastline and is now home to a number of leading hotel chains that have built luxurious resort hotels around a new luxurious resort called Taba Heights, which is 15km south of the border. Once completed, Taba Heights is expected to have 20 hotels, an 18-hole US Championship level golf course, a casino, a marina, as well as a full range of activities and water sports.

The Haro mountain bike equals expert dirt riding. Since Haro came on the scene in the 80′s as a BMX company, they’ve been focused on one thing only, and that is performance in dirt riding – on the mountain trails, on the local course, or anywhere for that matter, even on your way to work across town.

Dirt. That is what Haro is good at, and what they’ve been perfecting for decades.

Over the years they’ve developed many different Haro mountain bikes, for a variety of situations and bikers, but always focusing on performance. Bringing the experience of their BMX past into play with each new design, pays off big-time!

A case in point is the Haro Mountain Bike Extreme. With its hydro-formed top tube to support big-hit forks, as well as 5-6 inches of adjustable travel and aggressive disc brakes, the Extreme is a very stout machine. This is the ideal heavy-duty, all-mountain bike.

The Extreme Haro Mountain Bike boasts an extremely strong rear suspension that can handle practically any big hits and hard landings. The frame has enough lateral stiffness to help you always ride in a perfect line.

If you thrive on fast downhills, huge gap jumps and big drops then the Extreme will get you there and back!

The Werx Haro Mountain Bikes are the speed-monsters of the range. Tested and proven to be winners by the Haro/Lee Dungarees team, these black beauties are born to race and win. With names like Manitou, Shimano, and Saint used in the making, they have to be exceptional!

The Haro mountain bike range also offers the V3, a basic, bare-bones hardtail model for the beginner biker to get a first experience of the mountains, or even to commute across town.

Haro mountain bikes always seem to anticipate the needs of their riders. This is evident in this bike with its lightweight aluminum frame with replaceable derailleur hanger, and tabs for disc brakes for possible upgrading. The sloping top tube offers good stand-over clearance, which is welcome in many kinds of riding conditions.

Haro has also managed to come up with an extremely heavy duty bike that is aimed at those heavy and rough riders who like to drive their bikes – and themselves – to the extremes of endurance. The Haro Mountain Bike Escape 8.2 has a frame made of huge aluminum tubes, with strategically placed reinforcing gussets.

For extra protection against direct hits and bumps the Marzocchi EXR Pro Coil suspension fork of the Escape offers 105mm of travel. This Haro mountain bike is also supplied with extra-fat 2.35-inch Kenda tires. With all that protection, the Escape is unfortunately not a lightweight bike!

The Escape is supplied with three front chainwheels and nine rear cogs, but in place of the third (large) chainwheel, the bike sports a rugged bash guard to protect the drivetrain components from rocks and logs – and heavy duty dirt…

Yes, dealing with dirt. That is what every Haro mountain bike was born to do!

Most people who lure themselves into the addiction of sports aim for one thing and that is to maintain their overall body strength. There are those individuals who prefer to spend their free time in the gyms, jog around the nearest park, or be engaged in the tiring world of ball games. If one prefers not to dwell much on weightlifting and the likes, he has a better choice and that is none other than rock climbing.

Why rock climbing after all? Rock climbing ranks as one of the most adventurous and thrilling sports of today. Aside from boosting one’s body strength, rock climbing likewise develops discipline in one’s self. There are certainly obstacles which need to be surpassed by a rock climber. With these alone, the rock climber’s mind power is piqued since his mind is tickled in order to allow him to think of strategies so he can overcome the present obstacles. Overall, rock climbing stirs the strength of both the spirit and the mind of the person.

As one goes rock climbing, he is blessed with the opportunities of capturing the breathtaking sceneries on top of the mountains, soaking under the first few rays of the morning or the setting sun, and letting a feeling of victory and satisfaction wash over his own self. One must therefore not be afraid of rock climbing because it is honestly one safe sport provided that the climber’s got the proper equipment and the sufficient experience to keep him going.

Rock Climbing Practice for Amateurs

For the beginners, it will obviously be hazardous for them to take on the mountainous treks. It will be better off for them to practice rock climbing on the walls. The rock climbing walls are man-made things which contain crannies and hooks that give the individual a real rock wall environment. It is through the practice on rock climbing walls that the trainers can educate the climber on the proper use of the legs and arms, the rappel and the ropes.

The Real Deal with Rock Climbing

Rock climbing walls are geared with the necessary protruding parts that allow one’s foot to be nestled on. However, climbing the wall or the rock requires from a person a cautious strategy and estimation. One wrong decision may cause accident. As a climber, one should have an alert mind and firm decision. Throughout the course of the practice on rock climbing walls, one will soon recognize his potential strengths and weaknesses.

Most of the rock-climbing beginners depend a lot on their gears so that they can reach the top. The professional rock climbers however see it fit for them to do some free strokes because they already know their skills in this field. Expeditions concerning rock climbing can be totally expensive especially if the weather proves to be not fine. In this matter, they need to take an alternative route for the activity. And an effective alternative is the use of the rock climbing walls.

The Use of the Rock Climbing Walls

Rock climbing walls are structures complete with hooks and crags which can be used by the amateurs as they practice. The rock climbing walls serve as the training ground for the beginners so that they will have an overall feel of the real thing with rock climbing. Through the use of the rock climbing walls, beginners will learn the proper use of their muscular strength and their own equipment. It is through constant practice that the most effective strategies will be conceptualized.

Some of the award winning and most difficult tricks are a double back flip that was performed by Travis Pastrana at the 2006 X Games and double barrels rolls which are mid air sideways rolls.

A motocross rider needs to be in excellent athletic shape to handle the bikes at the huge g-forces encountered on the track and during tricks.
