Beach description
The beach itself is small in size, extremely rugged by small bays and creeks, which are separately created by located hotels. In the central part of the beach is about half a kilometer in length and about forty centimeters in width.
Most of the coast here is stony, dense, there are separate stone blocks and places that are distinguished by sharp stones, only remotely resembling pebbles. Therefore, sand was specially imported from other places directly to the beach. The sand itself is quite large, bright golden color, has one bright juicy shade, which stands out against the general background of the gray surface around and inside the city.
Directly near the beach and in artificial bays, the depth is shallow - no deeper than one and a half meters. However, it is increasing significantly in ten meters. And almost the entire strait between Hurghada and the island has a depth of about a dozen meters. Closer to the island of Juzu Abu Minkar, a large number of shallows and individual coral reefs and clusters are concentrated. However, swimming there is not recommended due to the active movement of sea boats and a distance of almost a kilometer.
In the view of the depth, even during low tides, water hardly leaves the coast, and the island is a natural breakwater. Therefore, if a wave is observed on the beach, it is small and not strong.
When is it better to go?
Red Sea resorts are open year-round. However, in July and August it is better to refrain from traveling, because there is unbearable heat, approximately 35-40 degrees, you can sunbathe in the sun instantly. May-June and September-October is the best time to travel to Egypt, because the heat is decreasing and hotel prices are getting lower (since the Mediterranean holiday season is still open).
