Brayka Bay Reef Resort
Review of Marsa Alam (Egypt) by jezza22uk

Advantages: Fantastic for diving/snorkling
Disadvantages: Very few other attractions

We've just come back from 1 week at Brayka Bay Reef Resort (Marsa Alum). Superb hotel - Barring no outdoor swimming pool for at least 1 month (ongoing repairs I believe).

Desert and deserted - Marsa Alam - dive heaven!

Marsa Alam, desert,coral and fish
Review of Marsa Alam (Egypt) by whetton

Advantages: fish, coral, desert
Disadvantages: food, wind

Marsa Alam is a 4 hour ride from Hurghada but, don't worry, the new airport opens in November - at least this is what the locals say! Quite who will use the airport is uncertain as there are only 2 or 3 hotels in the area.Shams Alam looks great in the foyer and the rooms are quite good, however, the food is almost inedible so prepare to lose weight.The dive centre is really good and boays set off daily at 8.30 returning at 5 pm. There are dolphins ... Read review
