Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt – Xperience Sea Breeze Resort, Shark’s Bay – A Quiet Christmas Boxing Day

Quiet and Calm

With very few people at this 5 star resort as a result of the recent terrorist bombing out of the Sharm El-Sheikh International Airport, the atmosphere was quiet and calm.

While relaxing down at the beach, I observed many tropical fish in the shallow waters of the Red Sea. Excited to swim with them, I declined due to the coolness of the water during the mid- morning hours.

The pool bar was closed. One server took drink orders and food orders from the handful of guests scattered around the pool.

It was nice to relax after the flurry of activity while in Giza and Cairo.
