A self-contained lagoon town of canals, marinas and design hotels — the kitesurfing capital of the coast and home to Zeytouna and Mangroovy beaches.
The Red Sea is a year-round destination. Spring (Mar–May) and autumn (Sep–Nov) bring warm, comfortable days and calm seas — ideal for the water. Winter is mild and sunny; summer (Jun–Aug) is hot on land but the sea stays a gorgeous 26–29°C. Diving and snorkelling are good all year, with seasonal wildlife highlights — see the marine-life calendar to plan around them.
