Latest reviews on South Sinai's beaches

Palma Beach
10 Thalia Montanez

This beach is definitely one of my top favorites. The water is crystal clear, making it an ideal spot for snorkeling. Don't forget to put on your sea shoes and immerse yourself in the wonders of the Red Sea. Prepare to be amazed by the incredible variety of fish species and the awe-inspiring beauty of the coral reef.

Dahab Lagoon beach II
10 Samiyah Farid

This beach is great for swimming, but not so much for snorkeling. The sand is nice and it's a perfect spot for kite surfing. Just make sure to bring your own mat, as there aren't many cafes around. You can rent a mat for a sunbed for around 20 LE and a cup of tea for 5 LE. Keep in mind that the water is quite deep after just three steps from the shore, so it may not be the best choice for kids. However, the view of the mountains is absolutely stunning. To get there, you can take a 35-minute walk across the wooden bridge, or bike there. I wouldn't recommend taking a taxi.

Princess Beach
10 Kaiya Jenson

This beach is perfect for diving, but it's important to note that there are no lifeguards on duty. We've been there twice with our kids and had to keep a close eye on them. However, the experience was worth it thanks to the stunning coral reefs and fish we saw. It definitely elevated our diving game.

Saladin Hotel Taba
8 Ricardo Montez

This beach, located on the Gulf of Aqaba within the Red Sea, is absolutely stunning.

Paradise Ras Sudr
10 Alfredo Jorge

The beach boasts a serene and tidy ambiance, perfect for unwinding. Additionally, the golden sand adds to the beauty of the place.

Nuweiba beach
10 Amer Mahmoudi

This beach is a great spot to unwind and soak up the sun. It's perfect for those who want to take a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Additionally, the beach has small pebbles that add to its charm.

Please note that lifeguards supervise 32 beaches in the region, but you should rely on more than just them, remember the elementary rules, as lifeguards are not on duty around the clock, even on equipped beaches!
