On a peninsula, surrounded by crystal clear waters framed by stunning sandy beaches, and with a backdrop of panoramic mountain views, Soma Bay boasts luxury at every turn. No one knows the origins of the town's name. One legend claims that Sheikh Abou Soma was so enthralled by the area's beauty that he asked to be buried at the very tip of the peninsula, which then took his name. Today the area boasts luxury hotels, and a world-class championship golf course designed by Gary Player. You'll also find a spa and thalasso therapy centre – La Résidence des Cascades – inspired by the region's black sand. And superior scuba diving and snorkelling at some of the best dive sites in the Red Sea.
