I came to Egypt for the first time to relax, sunbathe and, most importantly, swim in the Red Sea, about which my friends and acquaintances buzzed their ears. And as a result, I swam in the Red Sea once in 10 days when I was on an excursion on a yacht in a marine reserve. If someone is interested in swimming in the pool, then go ahead. you there. The beach is pretty good with sun loungers. mattresses and towels. And there is a bar on the beach and a great bartender in this bar. There is wind, there is no sea. 500 meters from the shore of water knee-deep at high tide. At low tide, a little more than ankle-deep. Then immediately an abyss 40 meters deep - blackness. For some reason, the wind blew every day and a red flag hung on the beach, which indicated that. that swimming is prohibited. Yes, still nowhere. The hotel guide warned that even when the wind does not blow, it is dangerous to swim because of some kind of sea currents that can pick up and carry into the sea. The pier is very long, but there are buoys right next to it. So there is nowhere to swim even in calm weather. Vacationers 80% Arabs. The furniture was tired, somewhere the safe did not work, somewhere there was a hair dryer, a telephone, an entrance lock, there were no ceiling lamps on the floor lamps, there was only one bulb sticking out. Leave two bottles of water in the room. The room was not cleaned at all two days before departure. The curtains in the rooms are so dirty that it is unacceptable for 5 stars. Towels were changed but linens were not. The kitchen worked for me. 2 restaurants and an Italian worked well. In food, it is not picky. But no coffee. Lipton tea bags. The territory is large. In general, I am ashamed to admit that I was in Egypt and did not buy in the Red Sea. Probably there is a city beach where you could go for money on a local bus, but the hotel guide said that we didn’t need to go there. It was clear. The service staff understands Russian very poorly or pretends not to understand. Animation is weak.
