Hurghada in Pictures

Hurghada in pictures: Red Sea reefs and life in the desert. At the Long Beach Resort, a coral reef lies just off the sandy beach, with colourful fish in clear, warm water. Hurghada is one of Egypt’s main bases for snorkelling and diving, with many reefs and islands offshore. Away from the coast, a trip to a Bedouin village shows another side of Egypt. Ride a camel, drink sweet tea and watch the stars come out over the Eastern Desert. All pictures come from places we have visited and described. Use the filters to browse by topic.
