Holidays: Pyramid sails

AFTER all that culture spend a few days unwinding beside the Red Sea. A short flight from Cairo or Luxor takes you to Sharm el-Sheikh where warm, azure waters and teeming coral reefs await. For just pounds 25 join a boat trip to the reefs. Go snorkelling and see the kaleidoscopic colours of the fish. The day out includes food and drinks.

-The Sinai Desert has some of the most spectacular monasteries in the Middle East. The best is St. Catherine's where, according to the Bible, Moses saw the Burning Bush. Regular tours are on offer.
