A chic, modern resort town on the Red Sea known for its crystal-clear waters, lagoons, and vibrant marina. It boasts some of the nicest bars and restaurants in the area, with nightlife that varies depending on the day. It is perfect for those who want to unwind after a day of exploring. It is highly recommended to take a one day boat trip to nearby islands, offering beautiful beaches and excellent snorkeling spots for an unforgettable day out on the water.

You will find great hotels in El Gouna. However, most people book apartments or villas through Airbnb or Booking specially for bigger groups (you will also find ones with pools). Make sure the accomodation is NOT in Hurghada if you are planning to spend your days in El Gouna.

Transportation in Gouna is in TukTuks that you will find in different locations there. You will need cash in Egyptian currency to pay them.

FYI - The picture above is Shaun in the water, if you want to experience this kind of relaxation in El Gouna, you need to book a boat trip. There is also the option to go on a diving boat trip arranged by a company (You'll probably have other people with you on the boat)
