HURGHADA TRAVEL GUIDE
EgyptIf you are looking for a holiday hotel, or apartment in Hurghada, the following information may help by giving you an overview on the resort.
Hurghada was founded in the early 20th century, and has been continually enlarged by the Egyptian and foreign sponsors since the 1980s to make this resort the leading seashore resort of the Red Sea. It seems like a long time since Hurghada was no more than a small fishing village and humble shipyard. It was ignored by the Egyptians and by the rest of the World! It is only in the last 10 years that Hurghada has grown into a town of 35,000 citizens to make it the most popular seaside resort in the country.
Hurghada is popular with divers and swimmers who come to enjoy the clear blue water and is renowned for as a centre for some of the World’s best diving. Inside a couple of hours from your hotel, you can be in the midst of islands with dive sites that will guarantee to astonish even the most experienced divers. With 20km of hotels along the beach it can satisfy every visitor from Scuba diving, windsurfing and desert safaris.
The town is also well known for the widespread nightlife. Ministry of Sound Egypt is among the club land giants who function immensely successful parties, 7 nights a week. The Hurghada Marina Boulevard boats over 80 shops, 15 restaurants and 7 bars. But we can’t forget to mention the country’s only Bungee Rocket standing self-righteous over the Marina’s entrance!
