Club Paradisio El Gouna

If you’re after a more energetic way to fill your days, there’s plenty on that front, too. This part of the world is famed for its diving and snorkelling opportunities, and with a dive centre on-site you can get a front row seat to what lies beneath the waves. There’s kiteboarding and water sports to get stuck into as well, so the level of adrenaline is totally up to you. As for the little ones, a fun-filled kids’ club opens its doors for a couple of hours each morning and afternoon, while the big, curvy pool has plenty of space to make a splash.

When hunger strikes, head to the main restaurant and fill up at the buffet, which is a generous offering of international and local fare with show cooking and regular themed nights. There’s a beachfront bistro, too, that serves up light bites during the afternoon and offers an à la carte menu most evenings. There’re a couple of watering holes sprinkled around the grounds, too, so afternoon cocktails, twilight tipples, and sophisticated nightcaps can all be on the agenda.
