Hurghada Sights

  1. aquarium

    If you don't want to put your head under the water, you can still get an idea of some of the life in the Red Sea's waters at the aquarium. It's just north of the public hospital in Ad-Dahar and has a reasonable, if somewhat neglected selection of fish and other marine creatures.

  2. Jasmine Village

    The main option for enjoying sand and sea is to go to one of the resorts, most of which charge nonguests for beach access. One of the best is the Jasmine Village, which has a small reef that allows you to combine snorkelling with sunbathing.

  3. Papas Beach Club

    You can spend the day lazing under a palm shade listening to laid-back sounds at Papas Beach Club or at the highly popular Liquid Lounge, a very chilled out beach bar/restaurant, with hammocks and floor pillows.
