Hurghada, Egypt

Hurghada started life as a fishing village and is now one of Egypt's premiere resorts. The downtown area of Dahar gives you a chance to experience true Egyptian ambience where the souks, or markets, display leather, gold, silver, carpets, spices and trinkets of every shape and size. Be prepared to barter!

From Hurghada, you can mix your diving with a visit to Luxor, which arguably has the greatest concentration of antiquities in the world; the Valley of the Kings, the Valley of the Queens and the temples of Luxor and Karnak, to name just a few!
Then there's the chance for the ubiquitous camel ride or jeep safaris into the desert where you can take a traditional meal with the Bedouin.

Dive Sites

The area either side of the Straits of Gubal is mainly the preserve of liveaboards. Flanked in the west by the islands of Gubal and Shedwan and in the east by the reef systems of Shab Ali and Shab Mahmoud, it is normally well beyond the day boat range of either Sharm El Sheikh or Hurghada. However, some boats do make the day trip from Sharm to reach the world famous wreck of the Thistlegorm, taking approximately 12-14 hours in total. Crossing the straits can be rough and sometimes downright impossible in all but the largest ships. The areas around Shedwan Island are closed to diving as this is a military area.
