The Best Beaches in Egypt

(38)

Egypt is a destination full of wonders. With coastlines on the Mediterranean Sea, the Nile River, and the Red Sea, Egypt's beaches offer a wide range of activities and scenery for you to enjoy. Find the best beaches in Egypt and get ready to have the time of your life doing amazing things like swimming, snorkeling, or just enjoying a great meal in front of the sea.

Since there are so many to discover, here is a list of the best beaches in Egypt:

Ras Um Sid, Sharm El Sheikh

Ras Um Sid, the most beautiful beach in Sharm El Sheikh, is an attractive beach full of many things to do. This popular vacation spot, with spectacular views of the Red Sea, is also very popular with divers who want to discover the abundance of underwater life.

Compared to other busier beaches in the city, the location, at the very top of a peninsula, means the area is a bit more relaxed and laid back. There are many nearby accommodations popular with families, close to the old souk, and a glimpse into the customs and heritage of the local people.

The beach on its own is a place where divers visiting Egypt can't help but be mesmerized by the elegance of the coral's colors. In impressive shapes, unusual fish flit and hide, which can also be easily seen while snorkeling and is a perfect way for children to get to know the ocean.

Agiba Beach, Marsa Matruh

For foreign travelers, this popular Egyptian beach may not be as popular. In the Arabic context, on the Mediterranean coast of Egypt, 24 kilometers west of Mersa Matruh, Agiba is a small but quite dazzling jewel, meaning "miracle."

The only possible way to get to the curved part of the beach is along a rocky path that leads from the top of the cliff. When you are on the beach, when the sun shines on the surface, it is impossible not to be fascinated by the transparent color of the water. This is a popular spot, though, and things get very busy here in the height of summer with people enjoying days outdoors, but it's pretty empty the rest of the year.

The surrounding sea is quite rocky, as well as the waves that break into the wide ocean are very solid but also offer great surfing opportunities a bit further away from the rocks.

Fjord Bay, Taba

Located about 15 kilometers from the small Egyptian town of Taba, near the border with neighboring Eilat in Israel, it is a perfect corner of paradise. Fjord Bay is the perfect place to dive, whether you have hundreds of hours of diving experience under your belt or are looking to try it for the first time.

The reason why this place is an amazing place to dive is because of the huge bed of coral that is found at the bottom of the fjord. With an impressive depth of 24 meters, it is hard to believe the sheer number of fish and diversity of marine life that lives on the reef.

It is good to know that a healthy coral reef is a sign of clean water and good ecological balance. The fjord itself is a deep blue bay that is protected on three sides by a mountain range, ideal for hiking and enjoying panoramic views of the fjord.

El Gouna

El Gouna, which means "lagoon" in Arabic, is a chic and elegant beach in the north of the Red Sea on the east coast of Egypt. A bustling tourist town, El Gouna has long attracted wealthy Egyptian and European high-society tourists with its luxury shops, diverse food scene, and, of course, a very attractive beach.

It is the type of place where lots of families and couples like to come and relax and enjoy a few days in a 5-star resort; there are also many activities to do in the area. El Gouna is famous in Egypt for its water sports: stronger winds mean good conditions for kitesurfing, water skiing, and paragliding, to name a few.

The picturesque natural seascape is intertwined with a network of canals and lagoons, with sand islands located in between. Staying in El Gouna means spending days relaxing on the white sand beaches or playing on the area's famous golf course and nights drinking in the cocktail bars.

Are you ready for your next beach vacation? With all these fun activities to do, finding the best beaches in Egypt will surely make your vacation exciting. Whether you venture to Ras Um Sid, Sharm El Sheikh, or Fjord Bay, Taba, you'll have plenty of fun at these world-class Egyptian beaches.
