Arriving in Soma Bay
Soma Bay is a gated peninsula of golf, thalasso spa and kitesurf resorts. Its distance from Hurghada makes airport taxis expensive and unpredictable; a fixed-price private car is both cheaper and calmer.
Luxor arrivals also use Soma Bay as their Red Sea base — that drive crosses the desert road in around three and a half hours with one driver throughout.
