Golf - Red Sea Region
Golfing near the Red Sea has become increasingly popular. Particularly the region Hurghada is making a splash here: the step-by-step expansion of its range of golf courses has brought an increase in quality tourism to the Hurghada region. Golf fans can currently enjoy the following courses:
Sahl Hasheesh Golf
As far as promoting golfing by the Red Sea is concerned, the resort Sahlhasheesh surely plays a key role. Designed as a luxury resort, a broad golfing range is aimed at sustaining a good price development for apartments, villas, and hotels to be sold here.
2 golf courses are currently being built, with more in the pipeline.
„The Cascades“, Soma Bay
Soma Bay lies roughly 45 km south of Hurghada and boasts a total of 4 hotel resorts. The 18-hole championship course was designed by Gary Player.
