Leave behind the fast pace of Cairo and enjoy a relaxing escape to the Red Sea on this Day Tour to El Ain Sokhna from Cairo. Perfect for travelers looking to experience the sea without committing to an overnight trip, this full-day tour brings you to the closest Red Sea resort town to the capital—just under two hours away.
Located on the Gulf of Suez, El Ain Sokhna is known for its calm turquoise waters, soft sandy beaches, and warm, sunny weather year-round. The name “Ain Sokhna” means “hot springs,” referring to the nearby mineral springs in the desert hills, but today the area is better known for its luxury resorts and peaceful beaches.
Your day begins with an early pick-up from your hotel in Cairo. Sit back and enjoy the scenic drive through the eastern desert before arriving at a selected private beach resort. Here, you’ll have full access to the resort’s facilities, including sun loungers, umbrellas, changing rooms, and beachside seating. Whether you prefer to swim, sunbathe, walk along the shore, or simply relax under a beach umbrella with a drink in hand, this tour is all about enjoying leisure at your own pace.
A delicious lunch will be served at the resort’s restaurant, often with fresh seafood or Egyptian specialties and beautiful sea views. After lunch, enjoy more time on the beach or opt for optional activities such as snorkeling, jet skiing, or beach volleyball.
