The best-value winter sun in reach
Nowhere does warm-water value like the Red Sea. The reef starts metres from the shore, the all-inclusive resorts are generous, and the sun shows up from spring right through to winter. Sharm El Sheikh is the diver's and snorkeller's coast; Hurghada and its gated bays — Makadi, Sahl Hasheesh, Soma Bay — are the family and couples' heartland.
Real hotels, real reviews, honest pricing
We list only the Red Sea hotels the operators actually package — TUI, Jet2 and Thomas Cook — so you can compare their price against a do-it-yourself total of the same hotel plus live flights. No thin pages or invented prices: just the resorts worth your week, with the photography and reviews to back them up.
Good to know
Common questions.
When is the best time for a Red Sea holiday?
The Red Sea is a year-round sun destination. April to June and September to November are ideal; winter is mild and sunny, and high summer is hot but great value.
Which is better, Sharm El Sheikh or Hurghada?
Sharm El Sheikh has the best reefs and diving and a livelier scene; Hurghada and its bays (Makadi, Soma Bay, Sahl Hasheesh) are quieter and especially strong for families and all-inclusive value.
Is the snorkelling really that good?
Yes — many Red Sea resorts have house reefs right off the beach, so you can be among the coral and fish within a few strokes of your sunbed.
