What are the must-sees in Sharm el Sheikh?

Where Sharm actually ends and Na'ama begins is anyone's guess but, if you head about five miles away from the port, the bars are swankier, the beach prettier and the facilities much better. What's more dive sites are still within walking distance.

A further seven miles up the coast will bring you to the relative peace and quiet of Shark Bay. Things are quieter here so it will suit those who want to relax rather than party.

The coolest spots, however, for young tourists can be found in the bars and cafes that line the beach at Dahab, about 70 miles away. World famous dive sites fringe the waters here, including the Canyon and the Blue Hole, and the nights are as lively as the marine life under the waters.

Do you have any tips for my flight to Sharm El Sheikh?
If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be overwhelming. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a stress-free start to your holiday in Sharm El Sheikh. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It's easy — first, put in your passport, travel documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and choose shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to pull on and off.
  • It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your lower limbs often.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Sharm El Sheikh?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Sharm El Sheikh in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

  • Have your boarding pass and passport at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
