El Quesir

  

 Destinations 


 

'I want to relax, read a book, do things at my pace, have peace and quiet' A truncated way is saying Movenpick, El Quesir. 68 km north of Marsa Alam the hotel is based 5km north of this old port city. The city itself is a working one with little connection to the tourist industry. For those that like their history El Quesir has 5000 years of it and during this time has housed the Romans, Napoleon and pilgrims to Mecca & Medina. It is an excellent location for a two centre holiday with Luxor and its many tombs a temples.

 

    

The hotel holds the coveted international enviroment certificate 'Green Globe 21'. this is awarded in part for "Eco Bay", which lies virtually on the Hotel's doorstep, and is arguably one of the Red Sea’s best preserved coral reefs.

Diving

The hotel is very proud of its own bay which is a small nature reserve protected by various ecological measures that have been implemented. It boasts a unique wealth of corals and fish life for you to enjoy in your dives. This is an ideal place for divers that wish to take their time in seeing the working ecology of a reef at their own pace.
