I was lucky to be a student in Egypt back then from 2011-2018. As we all know , Egypt is a country blessed with manu outstanding diving spots along Red sea and Mediterranean coastline. I had chances to dive in Hurghada, Dahab and Sharm el Sheikh. The satisfaction feeling was indescribable. Red sea is very amazing with clear blue greenish water that are home to the most vibrant coral reefs and marine creatures. Arghh how i missed my old good young and happy days in Egypt.
The Red Sea in Egypt is so beautiful. There is almost no pollution, the water is clear, and you can see small fish and shellfish at the bottom of the water in shallow places.
A few people rented a boat, took diving equipment, and set off. The food on the boat was also good, and the fish was really fresh, just caught. Pour iced Coke, cheers!

Over the years, I have been eating and drinking everywhere, from the Fairmont series in Kenya to the invincible giant resort in Mauritius, and then to various six-, seven- and eight-star hotels in Dubai. My requirements for hotels in all aspects have probably become higher and higher without realizing it.
In Hurghada, Desert Rose seems to be ranked among the top three in terms of hotel location, Red Sea area, various hardware equipment, comprehensive evaluation, etc.
In fact, a score slightly above the average may be more in line with its overall performance.
It is undeniable that the Red Sea is so beautiful that you only need to offer the entire private sea view of the hotel to attract fans immediately, enough to ignore the various other minor problems of the hotel~
Is this the legendary #God's gift#
When you come to Egypt, you must have an adventure in the Sahara Desert. On the sandy ground of Cairo, you can rent a desert off-road vehicle to form a team and go into the desert for adventure. You can camp in the desert and go sand-bashing on the sand dunes. It is really exciting and fun, and it is unforgettable.

The eastern desert of the Red Sea and the Sinai Peninsula is a very desolate place, and the surface here looks very much like the landscape on Mars. Therefore, many science fiction movies choose to shoot here. You may as well visit it and feel the feeling of an alien planet.
The Red Sea and the eastern desert of the Sinai Peninsula are a large desert area with black sand, giving people a feeling of the Gobi Desert. The sunset here is very beautiful and the sky scenery is gorgeous. It is definitely worth a visit.

Giftun Island is an island in Hurghada, with long sandy beaches and beautiful island style. The water around the island is very clear. It is a very worthwhile holiday island in Hurghada and worth a good visit.
The scenery of the island is quite good. There are some resorts on it. You can see the vast Red Sea from here. It is also a relatively interesting place. Not many people come here, so the tranquility is guaranteed here.

Gouna Island is a very beautiful island in Hurghada. There are many star-rated hotels on the island. The environment is really super good. The sea water here is blue and clear, and there are coconut trees swaying in the wind. It is obviously a beautiful island resort. It is really comfortable and cozy.
The tour guide told us that black represents the north, red represents the south, and the Red Sea is the "Sea of the South". The weather here is so great, and the water is so clear that you can see the shipwrecks underneath. Although there are not many types of fish, if you choose to go snorkeling or fishing, it is really perfect.

Mahamya Beach in the Red Sea and Sinai Peninsula is a beach with a very beautiful sunset view. The coastline here is very long and the sand is soft. The sun umbrellas and lounge chairs on the beach are a good place for people to relax and vacation. The sunset here is really magnificent and makes people linger.
Mahamya Beach in Hurghada is the most famous beach here. There are many high-end holiday villas and hotels on the beach. The beach is very wide and the sand is soft. It is a good place to sunbathe and swim in the sea.
