One of Egypt's most popular holiday resorts, Hurghada offers visitors a massive range of things to do on their holiday from relaxing on the beautiful golden sands beaches to fantastic tours and excursions.
Located on the Red Sea Coast, the Egyptian holiday resort of Hurghada stretches 22 miles along the golden sand shoreline of the warm waters of the Red Sea.
Hurghada resort is separated into 3 sections:
Until as late as the 80's, Hurghada was just a small fishing village, however heavy international investment coupled with the locations natural beauty has led to Hurghada quickly becoming Egypt's most popular beach holiday destination for UK holiday makers as-well as international holidaymakers looking for a chilled-our atmosphere and beautiful beaches.
Not much is known about Hurghada itself before it's development for tourism, it was a fairly unremarkable village known by locals for it's pretty location and small fishing industry.
Better known in the area is the port of El Quseir, about 80km south of Hurghada and a large and well-known port, used for centuries to import coffee from the Republic of Yemen.
in 1493 BC explorers were sent by Queen Hatshepsut, who's temple can be seen today on our Luxor Tours, to the legendary land of Punt in the Horn of Africa - now known as Somalia. The Ancient Egyptian explorers travelled to Punt down the life-blood of Egypt- the River Nile and then through Wadi Tumilat in the Eastern Delta and then on to the Red Sea. Evidence suggests the Egyptians would disassemble their boats, carry them overland and then use them to trade with in the Red Sea.
This successful expedition from Egypt to Punt bought back precious treasures such as Gold, ebony, wild animals and skins, ivory, spices and much more.
The port of Al Quasayr has played a significant part in the local area of Hurghada's history, and Egypt's history as a whole.
In much more recent history, Hurghada was founded as a holiday resort aimed specifically at the water sports market. With it's famously clear Red-Sea waters filled with beautiful coral reefs and wildly-varied marine life from colourful fish to turtles and dolphins, Hurghada offers fantastic scuba diving and snorkeling trips.
Due to its location and natural attributes, Hurghada is most famous for its water-sports, but there's far more than just watersports to keep holidaymakers happy.
