on a coral reef beach at the Red Sea (Egypt)

عَرَبيْ

Coral Beach Rotana Resort, Hurghada, Egypt, is probably the closest place to Europe where naturists can enjoy one of the richest ecosystems – coral reefs of the Red Sea. It is the right place to feel unity with the nature: fishes there are not only immensely diverse, but also rather tame! And since life in the coral reef is concentrated in 2-5 upper meters of the sea, it is easy to observe it without much of equipment: snorkeling is perfect.  Just dip into the water and will see a world utterly different from the surrounding desert! But I wish I had my underwater camera that time… Perhaps it is also the unique place in the entire North Africa and Near East region (except maybe a couple of places in Israel), where nudists are officially tolerated, also by Egyptian staff of the hotel. Though the web site if the hotel does not include information about it, probably to avoid bureaucratic problems with authorities who might not like it. The nudist part of the beach is about several hundreds meter long but only the first 50 or so are equipped (this area is exactly shown on the map), but one can swim as s/he likes (clothes-free ;-) all along coral reefs. Besides hours of swimming (the water is so warm that you really can stay for few hours in), other water activities are available at the resort as well. But even without all this, just looking at those crystal clear waters can be mesmarizing, and be sure that the weather in Hurghada is practically always perfect to get your all-over tan!)

    Hello there, together with my girlfirend we wish to visit the rotana resort you mentioned, but incredible to say, from the netherlands you cannot book it and many tour operators do not work with them anymore. Any idea with who they work with so to be able to reserve? thanks a lottomamsterdam@hotmail.co.uk
