Hurghada is located on the coast of the red sea, It is a relatively new city springing up within the last 10yrs. It is very touristy and caters strictly to tourists. This is a place for rest and relaxation, suntan and water sports.
Favourite spots:
Meya Meya Store, Casper internet cafe, walking along the beach, Sheesha bar somewhere downtown.
What's really great:
Snorkling off the coast, hanging with Samir the owner of the Meya Meya. Seeing underground Belai dancers during ramadan, courtesy of Samir
Sights:
just stroll through town, nothing spectacular but nothing not interesting.
Nightlife:
Arabia... I got in free on opening night! courtesy of Samir who used to work for the people.
Other recommendations:
if possible, try to go 4x4ing in the eastern desert... what a rush, hang with the bedouins for the day and watch the stars while you lay amongst the dunes. totally awesome experience.
