Taba, set at the feet of imposing, steep, rocky mountains, offers the chance to explore the surrounding awesome desert locales. The Sinai here has an amazing topography with a kaleidoscope of colours and rare fauna and flora, and it is extraordinarily rich in history and ancient culture. There is many ways to discover the beauty hidden in wadis and mountains. Whether by camel, truck, 4x4 jeep or quads, desert safaris and day trips take you to unforgettable adventures, guaranteed to take your breath away. Hiking and trekking in the desert is within range of everybody, provided that you go with experienced guides and follow their advice – most excursions to the desert include an easy walk accessible even to the less fit. Hotels and resorts in the area offer as well a number of exciting land activities. Although Taba is essentially “marine”, with its soft sand beaches and many watersports available in all resorts, from scuba diving to kite surfing and windsurfing, it offers also a number of leisure activities on land such as horseback riding, archery, games in multipurpose courts, beachvolley, biking, etc. |
