About Hurghada

Until recently a modest fishing village, today the Egyptian town of Hurghada is a major tourist destination and it's not hard to see the appeal. The sun-baked town offers fantastic beaches and watersports facilities, as well as excellent snorkelling and diving. A lively drinking and dining scene, combined with a well-developed tourist infrastructure, combine to make Hurghada an increasingly popular option for holidaymakers planning a trip to Egypt.

There are abundant accommodation options in Hurghada, Egypt, ranging from small boutique hotels to family-friendly hotel complexes, while shared apartments are a popular option among the party-loving young people who are increasingly flocking to Hurghada to sample the famous nightlife.

But perhaps Hurghada's biggest appeal for tourists is its scope for underwater adventures. The Red Sea coral reefs are teeming with rare species and attract divers from across the world, while a unique Underwater Garden'can be viewed from aboard a glass-bottomed boat by those who aren't keen on taking the plunge. Above the water, fishing, swimming, windsurfing and sailing are all popular with visitors to Hurghada.

At night, Hurghada really comes to life, with countless clubs and late-opening bars to be found here. Things don't really get going until after midnight, when there's plenty of opportunity to party the night away with visitors and locals alike. The restaurant scene is also lively - with plenty of pleasant options centred around the beach front. As one might expect given the location, seafood is very good here and there is plenty of opportunity to sample local Egyptian dishes as well as international cuisine.
