Hello, in Sharm the sea is better, there are a lot of fish, ask more specifically. I was in Egypt 7 times, hotels are all 5 stars

Definitely Sharm. Everything is better there :). The only plus of Hurghada: an excursion to Luxor by bus.

In Sharm El Sheikh, there are more corals and basically the entrance to the sea is only from the pontoon. In Hurghada, the sandy beach and on an excursion to Luxor are much closer.

Based on the fact that oil is spilled in Hurghada, I think it will not be very pleasant to swim with a bottle of solvent. There are reviews that the oil "reached" El Quseir.
Coming soon only Sharm!

Check out the Sierra 4*. Do not be afraid that line 2 is close to the sea + bus 1.5 min. regularly every half an hour. Here you will have an active rest (Soho Square, Panjaya disco for free, animation) and your mother will be comfortable (rest is measured, everything is compact, excellent food, very good rooms). I was in it twice in December and June - the impressions only improved, the hotel did not deteriorate in six months, but updated the evening animation. Each of you will get the desired vacation!

Purely a matter of taste. Personally, I would choose Charm: and mom go shopping, and you dive.

In general, it is also not bad in Hurghada, if you do not go to the city itself, but take remote hotels.
But what about oil - this, of course, is terrible.
But what, everything is really so bad and El Quseir and Marsa Alam will remain such beautiful places now only in the pictures?

Of course, in Sharm, and if finances allow, then in El Gouna, it is very beautiful there, it is not for nothing that it is called "Venice on the Red Sea"

Let me know what to do in El Gouna, except for taking pictures against the backdrop of mansions and canals?

Question to the author - why are you considering only Sharm and Hurghada, and not considering other cities in Egypt?
And what does active rest mean to you?
Do you need excursions?

I have already determined for myself that the choice will be between these 2 cities. Active recreation for us is primarily excursions and rhythmic evening (night) life in the hotel or outside it.

Sharm is a newer resort. Hurghada is older.
In the charm, the entrance to the water is from the pontoon. Sandy beach in Hurghada.
Charm seems to be more expensive. Hurghada is cheaper.
Sharm has more fish and corals. In Hurghada you need to look.
These are the main differences.

In Hurghada, nightlife is more fun, and the town of Hurghada itself is greener and more beautiful than Sharm, I have been there and there many times, if you need pretentious hotels and you are a diving professional, then you are in Sharm, if you want to have a good rest for an affordable price, snorkel in red sea with GREAT reefs and visit good disco, walk along the Sheraton (street) or along the port of Marina (it’s very beautiful there) - then you’re in HURGHADA))) I myself am flying on July 09 for 2 weeks to Le Pasha in Hurghada!

I’m going to Le Pasha for the first time, they write that there is a reef there, not far from the beach, almost all reviews say that Le Pasha is a good reef, everyone can’t be wrong! there was a good reef in Lily Land (at the entrance from the pier). In any case, I will go sailing on a yacht in the open sea and enjoy BEAUTIFUL REEFS there!!!! I’ll even say GREAT!!!!! their beauty depends on the time they were in Egypt, twice when it was in April to early May, the water bloomed, there was spawning, there were few fish, there were many jellyfish in the sea, the reefs were poor, bald and ugly, then in January to swim in the purest water transparent or in September!

I agree that the yacht looks completely different reefs, not trampled and not worn by tourists.
As for the fabulous reefs in Le Pache - to be honest, I'm surprised by this fact. Do you have the opportunity to photograph this reef? It would be interesting to see after your return.

Well, actually, when I wrote about the wonderful reefs in Hurghada, I directly meant reefs in the open sea and in some hotels in Hurghada that I visited! If there is such an opportunity, upon my return I will definitely post pictures and tell you if they lied in the reviews! the main thing is to fly!!!

I did not rest in this hotel, but I went to it on business, so I can more or less imagine its location. Around the same time, I ordered a sightseeing tour of the sea with snorkeling, sailed almost along the entire length of Hurghada, far from the beaches - I concluded that I didn’t want to go to any of the hotels in Hurghada, because I didn’t like the beaches and the sea there at all, and was indescribably I am glad that I did not live in Hurghada itself, but 20 kilometers from it. After that, in search of better reefs, I went to Sharm. There, of course, there is a chance to meet with large sea animals, but I didn’t like the terrain and the state of the reefs, so the next trips were already to Marsa Alam, and the next ones will probably also be there.

Understandably! I also always took hotels not in the city itself, for the first time I take it in the city, because I’m terribly tired of catching a taxi to get to the nightlife and discos of Hurghada, and even taxis are almost all anxious maniacs, of course, my girlfriend and I are offended we won’t give ourselves up (we’ve worked in the police for so many years without being angry), and we can answer in Arabic, but there were very annoying specimens! so the choice fell on Le Pasha! We'll see....
