Pick a destination for full details
Abu Tig Marina
Marina & diningThe town's superyacht marina, lined with restaurants and cafes around the water — the best spot in El Gouna for an evening stroll and people-watching.
Zeytouna Beach
BeachesA sandy beach on its own island right at the edge of the reef, reached by the town's shuttle boats. Calm, shallow water, a beach bar, and a pier over the lagoon — the classic El Gouna day out.
Downtown El Gouna (Kafr)
Town & cultureThe town center built in low Nubian-style architecture with domes and arches, holding shops, art galleries, spas, and most of the nightlife. The downtown lagoon and its bridge views are the town's signature photo.
Mangroovy Beach (kitesurfing)
WatersportsThe kitesurfing heart of El Gouna: a shallow, flat lagoon with steady wind almost every day of the year and a row of international kite schools. One of the easiest places in the world to learn and one of the most reliable for advanced riders.
🎯Things to do & experiences — El Gouna
With flat, waist-deep lagoon water and wind nearly every day, El Gouna is one of the world's easiest places to learn. Schools on Mangroovy Beach offer courses from a first 2-hour lesson to full independent-rider certifications.
Boats from El Gouna reach some of the northern Red Sea's best diving: the wrecks of Abu Nuhas (Giannis D, Carnatic), Sha'ab Abu Nuhas reefs and the marine life of the straits — often with noticeably fewer boats than Hurghada's departures.
An 18-hole championship course winding between lagoons and desert hills — one of very few true golf destinations on the Red Sea, with clubhouse dining overlooking the greens.
Sliders Cable Park lets you wakeboard and waterski without a boat — a fun half-hour loop over the lagoon that suits complete beginners and families.
🍴Where & what to eat — El Gouna
El Gouna has some of the best dining on the Egyptian Red Sea: seafood and Italian around Abu Tig Marina, grills and international cuisine downtown, and beach clubs on Zeytouna. Unlike most of Egypt, nearly all restaurants serve alcohol.
