Beaches

Marsa Alam is like the VIP lounge of Egypt’s beach club. Here are some of our faves:

  1. Sharm El Luli - pristine, untouched, and basically the supermodel of beaches. No biggie. This stunner is perfect for those seeking that postcard-perfect Insta shot (yeah, we see you!)

  2. Marsa Mubarak - Families, this one’s your jam: shallow waters, friendly turtles, and kiddos can play marine detective with the vibrant underwater life.

  3. Marsa Egla - This is your cosy nook. Secluded with a chance of dolphin rendezvous, it's the ideal spot for some romance under the Egyptian sun.

  4. Abu Dabbab - where a turtle might just photobomb your underwater selfies with the best coral backdrop.

  5. Honkorab - This one's for those seeking a slice of beachy heaven without the crowds
