Hurgada is a coastal city, and is situated close to many important cities that you may wanna visiti like Luxor and the valley of the kings- Sharm el Sheikh is far more laidback, away from the hustle and bustle of the city life. a gem set in the azure waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea, has probably its name to the luster of its rocks.

The Red Sea is a world-class diving destination: the stunning reefs, exceptional marine life, and incredible corals draw tourists from all around the world.

If you want to explore the wonders of the sea the clear winner here is Sharm el Sheikh the resort house reefs along this stretch of coastline are second-to-none. There are also numerous accessible wrecks here, including the famous SS Thistlegorm, Dunraven, and Carnatic to name a few.

Conversely, if all you want is relax with your spouse while the kids are playing with the sand by the beach, Hurgada may be a better option for you. Most of the resorts here have long sandy beach, and you can access the shallow waters without wearing special shoes.

Nonetheless, being Hurgada a bigger city than Sharm - you may find here more options than in Sharm - especially if you take a 15min ride cab to El Gouna, a favorite of Egyptian’ s rich and wealthy who come here to enjoy the trendy bars and open-air discos.

As we ve seen before Sharm is a gigantic town built in the desert whose whole economy gravitates around tourism; and people living here are mainly staff working in the hotels and their families.

Hurgada is an actual city. Here you can watch Egypt from different point of view - not only the hotels and the lush beaches, but also the city where the locals live, the fish markets, the souks and the bazar.
