The Venice of the Red Sea
Head north from Hurghada along the east coast of Egypt and you’ll find El Gouna – a collection of small islands connected by a network of canals and lagoons. Between the miles of soft sandy beaches and the quiet coves, there’s plenty to love about holidays to this modern, cosmopolitan town. As a private gated resort, it's got an exclusive feel to it, too, as well as an abundance of stunning hotels and a collection of vibrant marinas that're home to many impressive yachts.
You’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to how you spend your days here. Grab a patch of sand on the pristine beach and work on your tan or make a splash with some water sports – from snorkelling to kitesurfing, there’s plenty on offer to keep water babies happy. See if you can sink a hole-in-one on of the two championship golf courses, or explore what the town has to offer. Meander through the cobbled streets of the town and you’ll find designer shopping, fine dining, and picture-perfect views around every lagoon.
