Ain El-Sokhna ("hot spring" in Arabic) takes its name from the nearby sulphur springs that originate at Gebel Ataka, the most northerly peak of the Eastern Desert.   Ain El-Sokhna is only about a two-hour drive from Cairo and is a popular weekend destination for people to enjoy its fine beaches, coral reefs, fishing and water sports.

Ain El-Sokhna is blessed with a mild sunny climate all year round, smooth sandy beaches and marvellous clear blue waters rich in marine life and spectacular coral reefs.   There is still plenty to do if lounging on the beach or diving isn’t your idea of a holiday in Egypt.  Jaz Little Venice Golf Resort provides a wealth of restaurants, bars and a shopping arcade as well as an International standard golf course.  Desert safaris to nearby oasis and mountain canyons will satisfy those that seek an adventure holiday in Egypt. 

It is also the ideal base to explore Cairo, the bustling metropolitan heart of Egypt and the Middle East.  You can experience Cairo’s blend of modernity and antiquity and spectacular sites such as the Great pyramids of Giza, Memphis and Saqqara and still return to the relative calm and tranquillity of lush greenery, crystal clear sea and excellent amenities.
