WINTER
SUN CRUISE ON LAKE NASSER
A winter sun cruise on Lake
Nasser can be a wonderful and unique experience. Lake Nasser is a large
reservoir located in southern Egypt and northern Sudan, created by the
construction of the Aswan High Dam. It is known for its stunning natural beauty
and ancient historical sites.
During a winter sun cruise on
Lake Nasser, you can expect pleasant weather with temperatures ranging from
mild to warm. This makes it an excellent choice for those seeking a break from
colder climates and looking to enjoy some sunshine during the winter months.
One of the main attractions of a
Lake Nasser
cruise is the opportunity to visit the ancient Egyptian temples that were
relocated due to the construction of the dam. The most famous of these temples
is Abu Simbel, which was moved to higher ground and meticulously reconstructed
to preserve its historical and architectural significance. Abu Simbel is a
UNESCO World Heritage site and is renowned for its massive rock-cut temples
dedicated to Pharaoh Ramses II and his queen, Nefertari.
Apart from Abu Simbel, your
cruise may also include visits to other temples and archaeological sites along
the shores of Lake Nasser. These sites often have fewer crowds compared to the
more well-known attractions in the Nile Valley, providing a more serene and
intimate experience. You can explore temples like Wadi El Seboua, Amada, and
Kalabsha, which offer fascinating insights into ancient Egyptian history and
culture.
On your cruise, you'll typically
travel on a comfortable, modern cruise ship equipped with amenities such as
spacious cabins, dining facilities, and recreational areas. You can relax on
the sun deck, enjoying panoramic views of the lake and its surroundings while
basking in the warm winter sun.
In addition to the cultural and
historical aspects, a Lake Nasser cruise also offers opportunities for wildlife
viewing. The lake is home to a diverse range of bird species, including
migratory birds that visit during the winter season. You might spot pelicans,
herons, egrets, and various other waterfowl as you cruise along the lake.
Overall, a winter sun cruise on
Lake Nasser combines history, nature, and relaxation, making it an enticing
option for travelers seeking a unique and off-the-beaten-path experience in
Egypt.
