Hidden away on the coast of northeast Africa, along the majestic Red Sea, Eritrea is an undiscovered and untouched paradise. It is a place of intriguing cultures, breathtaking landscapes, unique experiences and incredible soul.
Asmara, the capital city, has spurred many legends since its discovery in the 12th century and enchanted just about every traveller that has wandered through its bustling streets. Magnificent art deco and modernist architecture lines the trembling streets, while the central market offers a unique chance to lose yourself in the chaotic whir of street shopping.
The city of Massawa, which nestles on the teal shores of the Red Sea, will take you on a shabby, yet undeniably enchanting, journey through the historical district of Old Town. Notable attractions in Massawa include the Shrine of Sahaba, Sheikh Hanafi Mosque and Imperial Palace. North of Massawa is the soft beach of Gurgusum.
Dahlak Marine National Park, just off the coast of Massawa, is an idyllic composition of islands and islets. The surrounding waters offer amazing scuba diving, snokelling and pearl fishing. Dolphins, sharks, dugongs, turtles and shipwrecks live beneath the waves.
