About The Red Sea for Golfing Holidays
The Red Sea has become one of the most accessible and reliable golf holiday regions for UK golfers.
With direct flights to Hurghada, short transfer times and consistently warm weather, it’s an easy option for winter sun and shoulder-season breaks.
What sets Red Sea golf holidays apart is the variety between its main destinations, each offering a different atmosphere and style of stay.
Soma Bay is the most refined and resort-focused, set on a private peninsula with high-end hotels and a quieter, more exclusive feel.
It’s ideal for golfers looking for a premium experience with easy access to two quality courses, along with beach and spa facilities.
Makadi Bay offers a broader, more traditional Red Sea resort experience, with a strong selection of all-inclusive hotels and convenient access to nearby golf courses.
It’s a good choice for groups and those looking for value alongside golf.
El Gouna is the most lively and social of the three, built around lagoons and a marina with a wide choice of restaurants, bars and beach clubs.
It combines on-site golf with a more flexible, town-like feel, appealing to golfers who want more to do away from the course.
