Egypt is an independent Arab Republic and is located in northeast Africa and approximately 6% of the Sinai Peninsula. It is washed by two seas: the north of the country is the Mediterranean, which the Egyptians call the White, and the east is washed by the Red. The seas of Egypt and their coasts have a completely different climate, depending on the seasonal winds. In the Red Sea, tourists can afford to swim all year round, and in the Mediterranean the season is open from May to the end of October. Therefore, we can say that the seas of Egypt are equally beautiful in absolutely all resort towns.
Red Sea

For lovers of underwater entertainment and diving, this place seems like a paradise.

The entire coast is strewn with luxurious hotels and hotel complexes, as well as small private villas. There are also multi-storey buildings, which offer the most striking view, especially during sunset and sunrise. The most popular Mediterranean resorts are Mersa Matruh and Alexandria. Their sandy beaches stretch for tens of kilometers, and in the cities you can get acquainted with ancient sights.
