Marsa Alam: 14 Nights with Flight + Hotel from €354 pp

Why go to Marsa Alam now?

If you want to escape the gray Berlin December, the Egyptian coastal town of Marsa Alam is a real winter highlight in December. Plenty of sunshine, a warm Red Sea and a relaxed atmosphere away from the big tourist crowds – that’s what makes this region between desert and sea so special. The marsa alam flight and hotel package takes you for 14 days to a coast known for its pristine coral reefs and the famous dugongs (sea cows).

🛂 Visa: eVisa required — apply online comfortably before departure.

Among the real highlights are Abu Dabbab Bay, where with a bit of luck you’ll meet turtles while snorkeling, as well as Marsa Mubarak, a dive site that even beginners enjoy. Culturally interesting is a trip to the Temple of Luxor – it’s a bit further away, but can be combined as a day trip. In Marsa Alam itself, you’ll find typical Egyptian restaurants serving fish tagine and grilled shrimp right by the harbor. The area around Abu Dabbab Bay is quiet and close to nature, ideal for those who don’t need a party mile but love relaxation and diving.

Best time to travel & practical tips

In December, Marsa Alam enjoys ideal desert climate: daytime temperatures climb to a pleasant 25 to 28 degrees, cooler at night – perfect for relaxing on the beach. The water temperature is about 24 degrees, ideal for snorkeling.

• Local transport: Taxis and shared taxis are available. For excursions, I recommend asking the hotel reception or negotiating with a local driver – that saves you real money.
• Saving money: Don’t book your excursions directly on the beach; compare prices locally instead. Bargaining also pays off when shopping at local markets.
• Money-saving tip: Make full use of the hotel’s all-inclusive services – lunch at the beach and water included. For trips to Abu Dabbab Bay, you only pay the entrance fee of a few euros.

The Sultan’s Beach Resort

The Sultan’s Beach Resort is located in Abu Dabbab Bay, known for its house reefs and the chance to spot turtles right at your doorstep. As a 4-star property, it offers all-inclusive comfort including several pools, restaurants, and its own stretch of beach. The location is an ideal starting point for snorkeling trips – without long transfer times.
