Sharm El-Sheikh International Airport

Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt

Where to start
Hotel or pre-booked transfer, inDrive, or a taxi from outside the terminal

Sharm El Sheikh Airport is north-east of Naama Bay, with resorts spread along the coast from Nabq to Sharks Bay and the Old Market. Most visitors are met by a hotel or tour-operator transfer, so check your booking first. inDrive explicitly supports airport pickups at SSH; taxis wait outside the terminal. Shared minibuses run between the airport and town but leave when full, not on a timetable. Uber is not verified for SSH airport pickup.
