Hurghada is Egypt's original Red Sea resort town — a long stretch of coastline built around diving, snorkelling, and straightforward beach time, with coral reefs a short boat ride from shore.
It pairs naturally with a Nile-and-history itinerary as a few days of genuine downtime at the end of a trip, or works well as a standalone beach break in its own right.
