Hurghada

The terrain around Hurghada is an arid meeting of Egypt’s Eastern Desert and the Red Sea, and it has shaped both the city’s long coastal form and its economy of tourism, diving and marine services. Once a small fishing settlement, Hurghada has grown into one of Egypt’s principal Red Sea resorts, with the modern Marina area and older El Dahar neighbourhood marking different sides of its development. The Giftun Islands lie offshore, while coral reefs have made this coast an established base for boat trips and diving.
