Egypt sport holidays
What Kind of Sports?
Egypt isn’t all about dead Pharaohs and holy
lands. You can also find luxury tours that
highlight sports! In fact, ancient Egypt was very into sports even thousands of
years ago. Some of the most common sports back in the day included gymnastics,
javelin throwing, swimming, rowing, weight lifting and marathon running. These
sports are still represented today by way of resorts that feature gyms, sports
courts, swimming pools and diving centers.
Scuba Diving and Golfing
You can find many guided tours that showcase scuba diving
activities for the whole family, whether you are a beginning or experienced
swimmer. There are also numerous golf courses, such as the Mena House Golf
Course, and the Royal Valley at Luxor, as well as tennis courts at the finest
luxury hotels.
An even better region of Egypt for sports and private tours is Dahab. Though originally a Bedouin village, Dahab has evolved into a tourist-friendly paradisiacal area for scuba divers and windsurfers. It is well liked because of its high winds and very modern facilities. Along with surfing and diving, the area also gives you the opportunity to go mountain biking, kite surfing and sailing.
Hurghada is a very popular city and offers more water sports, golf and even casinos than most other Egyptian cities.
Many tourists state that though you can rent diving equipment from your hotel or diving center, you may want to bring your own snorkel and mask for hygienic reasons. After all, thousands of people have put their face and lips on these rented items, which might make you feel a bit germophobic! Tourists are also advised to bring sun block and light clothing.

Camel Riding...
Another popular activity is camel riding, a
popular though unofficial “sport” that many tourists love, given the rarity of
a camel in western civilization.
Fishing and Trekking
Fishing is certainly an exciting sport and most
areas along the Nile River will accommodate your for fishing activities, as
well as Lake Nasser just south of the city of Aswan. While the Nile River is
the best river for fishing, the Red Sea is the best location for scuba diving.
Last but not least, check out Sinai. Though this isolated region is mainly for
historical value, trekking land tours are still tremendous fun.
There are numerous budget tours and more expensive day tours that cater to your love of sports. Egypt’s charms may be in its history, but it certainly brings a thrill to active vacationers who want to play as hard as they work.
