Discover the Hidden Charms of Sharm El Sheikh
A Perfect Blend of Adventure and Sandy Beaches with Join UP!™
A fully booked Join UP! Czechia charter touched down at Sharm El Sheikh on June 7, marking the tour operator’s inaugural direct flight from Prague to the captivating Egypt resort.
The 165 eager travelers began their holiday journey along the Red Sea coast, home to unfairly underestimated pristine beaches, crystal-clear waters, and vibrant coral reefs.
What Makes Sharm El Sheikh So Special
Far more than just a “beach destination,” Sharm El Sheikh is one of Egypt’s most exciting resort towns — boasting tropical beaches that rival the Caribbean or Maldives. The Red Sea coastline is dotted with stretches of soft white sand, especially near resorts like Ivy Cyrene, Jaz Fayrouz, and Regency Park — ideal for sunbathing, swimming, or pure relaxation.
Of course, classic Red Sea activities such as scuba diving, snorkeling, and windsurfing are on offer, but there’s more: Sharm delivers a box full of “wow” moments even for seasoned Egypt travelers. From adrenaline-pumping jeep safaris to camel and horseback rides through the desert, followed by magical sunsets and overnight stays under the stars — the experiences are as diverse as they are unforgettable.
Sights, diving and nature – unforgettable trips from Sharm El Sheikh
From Sharm El Sheikh, you can easily take a trip to Mount Sinai or Cairo, where you can now visit the new Grand Egyptian Museum, albeit to a limited extent. If you like ancient Egypt, you cannot miss the pyramids and the Sphinx. The monastery of St. Catherine is also a classic.
Nearby Ras Mohammed National Park is world-renowned for its marine biodiversity, and diving hotspots like the Blue Hole, Lighthouse Reef, the Canyon, and the Ras Abu Gallum protected area in Dahab make this region a paradise for divers and nature lovers alike.
Sharm El Sheikh’s infrastructure has seen major upgrades in recent years, especially in preparation for COP27, the 2022 global climate summit that welcomed over 100 world leaders and 35,000 participants.
Jennifer Lopez concert included in the price of the trip
And the destination continues to shine — quite literally — as a hotspot for international entertainment. On July 4, global superstar Jennifer Lopez kicks off her world tour with a live performance at Rixos Radamis Beach Arena. Guests staying at Rixos Radamis Beach 5*, Rixos Radamis Blue Planet 5*, Rixos Radamis Tirana 5*, Club Prive by Rixos 5*, Rixos Premium Seagate 5*, and Rixos Sharm El Sheikh (Adults Only 18+) 5* will have free access to this exclusive concert.
How Join UP!™ is Rekindling Europe's Love Affair with Sharm El Sheikh
Once a favorite holiday escape for Europeans, Sharm El Sheikh has remained an underappreciated gem — and a flagship destination for Join UP!™. Year after year, it ranks among the top spots in brand portfolio.
Since launching in 2010, Join UP!™ has brought over 3 million travelers to Egypt across nine operational markets. Sharm El Sheikh has consistently led among over 40 destinations, especially in countries like Poland, where traditionally only Hurghada and Marsa Alam were popular.
When thinking about a vacation in Egypt, the most common choice falls on Cairo or Hurghada. However, it is worth adding one more city located in the southern part of the Sinai Peninsula - Sharm el Sheikh. Why exactly there? Among other things, for the inexpensive prices of stay and an increasingly wide network of flight connections offered from Poland. The resort is located in a dry subtropical zone.
- Before Join UP!™ entered the Polish market in 2022, around 45,000 Polish travelers visited Sharm El Sheikh annually. In 2023, that number soared to 151,000, and the trend continues upward. In fact, Join UP!™ expects to handle nearly 50% of all Polish traffic to Sharm El Sheikh by 2025.
- This success is fueled by brand’s strong local partnerships in Egypt, deep expertise in the region, and its strategic alliance with SkyUp™, which enables them to offer competitive pricing — comparable to holidays in Hurghada, Marsa Alam, or Alamein.
A Destination That Has It All. With stunning beaches, warm weather year-round (dry heat and low humidity make even high summer temperatures bearable), spectacular diving, and an exciting mix of leisure and cultural activities, Sharm El Sheikh is ready to reclaim its place as a top-tier Mediterranean-style getaway.
