El Gouna

El Gouna (الجونة) is a self-sufficient, fully integrated resort town of 24,000 on the Egyptian Red Sea Coast just north of Hurghada. The city offers many activities and entertainment and is a popular destination yearly.

History of El-Gouna

Egypt resorts on the Mediterranean and the Red Sea are usually many hotels on a previously uninhabited coastline. El Gouna was built with a different mindset; a real town with inhabitants and “free-standing” restaurants, bars, nightclubs and shops, and a marina for yachts. The same concept was used for Marina el-Alamein on the Mediterranean, Taba Heights on the Sinai east coast and Port Ghalib.

The construction of El Gouna (the name translates to “the bay” or “the lagoon”) on the site of the village of Kafr el-GÅ«na began in 1989 with work on the Tamr Henna Palace. The town stretches about 5 km along the coast and 2 km inland. It’s set up like a Mediterranean lagoon landscape with several islands connected by bridges. The buildings are a mix of modern and traditional architecture, and in addition to hotels, there are also holiday homes and housing for the around 10,000 employees of the resorts. Also, Italian, French and American architects and engineers have been involved in the project.

Today El Gouna’s facilities include a landing strip, three international standard marinas, universities and schools, an 18-hole championship golf course, 17 hotels, two spas, and a state-of-the-art gym. The town has over a hundred restaurants and bars, scuba diving, yachting, fishing, fully-equipped water sports centres, tennis, squash, padel and horse-back-riding.

There are three main areas with shops, bars and restaurants: 1 Downtown, including El Balad and Kafr el-Gouna; 2 Tamr Henna just north of the former, across a bridge and the 3 Abu Tig Marina much further north. Mangroovy Beach, Marina Beach, Buzzha Beach and Zeytouna Beach are the most extensive public beaches.

El Gouna Sights

Even though most of the town’s offerings fall in the Do category, El Gouna has a few things to see.

  • Church of Holy Mary and Archangel Michael. Coptic-Orthodox church in El-Bustan, just southwest of town, was designed by Italian architect Alfredo Freda and opened in 2004. The church has three naves and two bell towers. The paintings in the church are primarily by artist Mina El Comos Temesaus.
  • El Gouna mosque
  • Aquarium (Downtown) Here, you can see the underwater life of the Red Sea.
  • Mangrove island. An island about 500 m in length, in front of the Sheraton Miramar Resort.
  • Desert Breath. A landscape artwork was created west of the resort between 1995 and 1997 after a design by Greek artist Danae Stratou. It comprises 89 giant cone-formed pits and heaps arranged like a spiral. In the middle, a pond was 30 m in diameter that had long evaporated. The artwork has intentionally been left to deteriorate through erosion.
  • Deir Umm Duheis (AbÅ« SchaÊ¿r). In the southeastern corner of the resort are the ruins of a Roman fort, once housing about 200 soldiers of the Ala Nova Maximiana camel cavalry unit. There were bastions at all four wall corners and entrances on the northern and western sides. The last entry has an inscription revealing it was established in 309-311 during the rule of Aurelius Maximianus. The walls contained barracks, warehouses, stables, and the commander’s house. During the 7th century, the fort was used as a church for Coptic Christians, and later it was possibly a destination for pilgrimage.
  • Culturama (Embassy of Knowledge, in the library).
