Hotels near Hurghada Marina Boulevard

Hurghada Marina (officially New Marina Hurghada) opened in 2008 and has become the social hub of the city. The waterfront boulevard curves around a yacht harbour and is lined with restaurants, cafes, souvenir shops, and a small amusement area for children. On any given evening, the promenade fills with families, couples, and groups enjoying the sea breeze and the view of moored boats lit up against the dark water.

Eating at the Marina is moderately priced by Egyptian standards but still affordable for European visitors - a main course at a waterfront restaurant costs EGP 200-400 (EUR 4-8). The Marina is also where most Giftun Island and diving boat trips depart from, so you will likely pass through at least once. It is walkable from hotels in the Sekalla area (about 10-15 minutes), or a short taxi ride (EGP 30-50 / EUR 0.60-1) from further afield.

Pro Tip: Head to the Marina around sunset (roughly 17:30 in winter, 19:00 in summer) for the best atmosphere. The restaurants on the outer curve of the harbour have the widest views and catch the evening breeze.
