Leisure & Recreation

The Cascades Championship Golf & Country Club
La Residence is located at the center of a dramatic golf course which combines the best of links and desert features. The Cascades Championship Golf Course is designed by Gary Player, one of the "Big Three" (along with Jack Nicklaus & Arnold Palmer). The 18 hole, par 72 course has lush green fairways that contrast dramatically with the rugged desert and the clear blue waters of the surrounding sea. Adjacent to the course, is a 9 hole, par 3 Golf Academy Course, also designed by Gary Player. It offers both the beginner and the more advanced golfer the opportunity to practice a variety of shots with emphasis on the short game. There are also extensive practice facilities, including a 60 bay driving range, and several putting and pitching practice greens. Individual and group tuition by PGA Golf Professionals is also available.

Les Thermes Marins des Cascades Spa & Thalasso Center
For centuries the waters and sands surrounding Soma Bay have been renowned for their richness and natural healing power; the ideal base for effective thalasso-therapy. Les Thermes Marins des Cascades is an integral part of La Residence, easily accessible from all guest rooms. It has been established and is operated in cooperation with Les Thermes Marins de Saint Malo of France. It is one of the largest thalasso-therapy centers in the region. Highlights of the facilities and treatments include an 800 m2 Aquatonic Pool, fitness and nutrition programs, a variety of hydrotherapy treatments, in addition to seaweed wraps, underwater massages, “sea mist” room, beauty care and post-natal recuperation programs.

Diving
The waters of the Red Sea are world famous for their teeming marine life. Snorkeling is a wonder in itself and when it comes to diving, Soma Bay offers more for everyone - from beginner to advanced diver. Directly off Soma Bay, and in several reef clusters nearby, are some of the best dive sites to be found anywhere in the Red Sea.
Soma Bay\'s Dive Center, run by Emperor Divers, is the largest on the Red Sea and serves all of the resorts within Soma Bay from its privileged location on the House Reef. It has a number of unique features including a 420-meter jetty extending directly from the Dive Center to the House Reef and ideal conditions for beginners in natural, safe, calm conditions within sheltered waters.

Sea & Surf
The beach, a short distance from the Resort, known as Bay Point, is easily one of the most beautiful on the Red Sea. Located at the furthest extremity of the Soma Bay peninsula, the beach features an old-fashioned wooden bridge on arched footings with a sandy cove on one side and a richly-colored coral garden teeming with marine life on the other. Off its point, seven towers of coral are accessible at a brisk swimming distance for spectacular snorkeling and diving. For a faster pace, windsurfing, kite-surfing, and sailing on catamarans or lasers are all popular activities in Soma Bay.

Racquet Sports & Fitness Center
