Information about Hurghada
Foundation of Hurghada
Hurghada is one of the Al-Bahr Al-Ahmar governorate’s towns on the Red Sea coast. The Egyptians constructed the present city of Hurghada in the early 20th century. Until recently, it was a small fishing village with a modest population.
Since the 19th century, Egyptian and foreign investors have continually enlarged the city. Therefore, it became the leading coastal resort on the Red Sea. Undeniably, the discovery of oil in this area in 1913 enhanced its rapid development. But, exporting its actual production began in 1921 under British oil magnates.
