Natural Disasters
The area of Sharm el Sheikh is susceptible to earthquakes, with the most recent on November 19, 2011 with a magnitude of 4.1. Seismic activity is frequent in the areas of the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aqaba. Sand and dust storms are also prevalent through the months of March to July as the area is at its driest. Foreign tourists are strongly advised to invest in a comprehensive travel insurance package that will cover overseas medical costs and medical evacuation.
Civil Unrest
The whole of Egypt is currently experiencing civil unrest and high threats on terrorist attacks are imminent. Hijackings and kidnappings have been regularly occurring since early 2012. Although Sharm el Sheikh and Nabq Bay are many miles away from Cairo, tourist spots have become an increasing target amidst all these unrest.
Shark Attacks
A number of shark attacks have been reported on November 30, December 1 and December 5 of 2011 where one tourist has died and three injured. Shark attacks are unusual at the Red Sea, though visitors are advised to take precautions and be updated with the local authorities.
Nabq Bay is definitely a beautiful tourist destination as it offers world-class amenities and activities as well as several chalets and hotels to choose your lodging in. No doubt, security is high for the whole of Egypt, especially tourist destinations, but if you are planning on travelling there anytime soon, be cautious of the political situation there as attacks are indiscriminate.
