About Hurghada

Hurghada is a Red Sea resort town on Egypt's mainland coast, loved for its coral reefs, warm water, desert excursions and easy beach days.

The town stretches along the shore, from the older district of El Dahar with its souk and fish market to the marina at Sakkala and the resort strip to the south. Offshore, the reefs and islands of the Red Sea teem with colourful fish and coral gardens, and dolphins are sometimes seen, making snorkelling and diving the main draws.
