The Gamsha Bay project being developed in Egypt by Damac Properties is truly a mammoth sight to behold (the photo captures only about half of the development). The 320-million square foot project, which is located on the red sea 60 km north of Hurghada, is billed as the largest development in the region, and upon viewing it first-hand it certainly lives up to its claim.

Residents of the $16bn project will be able to enjoy 39kms of coastline and 25kms of beaches near their apartments and villas. The sprawling community will also include golf courses, spas, marinas, shopping, and cinemas, but what really caught our eye was the development’s x-treme sports adventure theme park. Designed - presumably - for ‘kids’ of all ages, the park will offer activities such as skateboarding, paint ball, wall climbing, shooting, and flying.

Damac says that the park will be the first of its kind in the Middle East. Unfortunately, no date was given on when the park will be ready.
