Hurghada – a Resort in Egypt
Located on the Red Sea, Hurghada is a very popular beach destination in Egypt. It has the twin advantages of having excellent weather, and easy accessibility to much of Europe.
The resort really started growing in the 1980s when scores of tourists from countries such as Russia and Germany and other Eastern Europe countries began arriving there for short holidays as part of inexpensive package tours.
Seeing its growing popularity an excellent airport has been built, which caters to flights from all over, and now there over 200 hotels in the city.
The city extends about 36 kilometers along the seashore and does not go too deep inside the Egyptian desert. It’s prime attraction for all those who gather here are its beautiful beaches and the aquatic sports which are easily available all around. All the hotels and resort villages have made arrangements for sports such as snorkeling, sailing, and scuba diving for their guests. The warm blue waters of the Red Sea are home to marine life of immense variety, and the divers are presented with the vision of beautiful underwater coral gardens.
The city is divided into three regions – El Sakala {or Sheraton Road as it is normally known as}, El Dahar and Promenade. El Sakala is the main centre of the town with all the markets and excellent fish restaurants. From here you can walk to the Marina, where the best bars and nightclubs and restaurants are located.
The Promenade is another great place to go to – a 5 km. long marina, with clean walkways and innumerable shops.
If you are looking for a beachside resort, with a lot of the local culture and ambiance still within it, then you should spend some time at Hurghada in Egypt.
