Escape to Somabay this May half term and enjoy a family friendly destination packed with adventure for all ages. Whether relaxing under the Egyptian sun or exploring the crystalline waters of the Red Sea, families are guaranteed an unforgettable stay at Somabay, with memories to last a lifetime.

With a range of diverse water and land-based activities available at the destination, families can head to the beach for a game of beach volleyball or pay a visit to the Soma Sports Arena and try their hand at a variety of other ball sports including padel tennis, Squash and football, as well as tennis on the grass tennis courts. Alternatively, Somabay's Playpark offers kids activities including go-karting, paintballing, aqua park and foot golf – combining football and golf – providing the perfect setting for a memorable stay.

For flourishing young golfers, Somabay has the first junior golf academy of its kind in the Red Sea - the Somabay Golf Academy. The academy's fully qualified team of PGA professionals offer children aged six and above an unrivalled opportunity to elevate their game. While the young ones are learning to master the sport, parents will delight in Somabay's new Short Game Arena, where amateurs and pros alike will have an opportunity to practice every scoring shot, as well as the Gary Player Championship Course and floodlit Par 3 Golf Course for challenging games that last into the evening.

As one of the top three kitesurfing destinations in the world, families looking to cool off from the Egyptian sun can experience Somabay's latest kitesurfing extension hub, 'Utopia' on the nearby Tobia Island, offering lessons such as kitesurfing and windsurfing to allow guests to take advantage of the unfaltering wind conditions. Families who prefer to explore the underwater beauty of the Red Sea can head to Orca Diving Centre, which offers both beginner and advanced diving courses, or enjoy snorkelling on the Happy Turtle boat trip.

While the children are keeping busy with the extensive family-friendly activities on offer at Somabay, parents can switch off at The Cascades Spa & Thalasso, offering a space to disconnect from the outside world. Spanning over 7,500 square metres with 65 treatment rooms, The Cascades Spa & Thalasso is home to the only spa with a Thalasso-Tonic seawater-based therapy in the Red Sea.
