Where to relax in Egypt in winter?

In popular resorts, such as Hurghada, the winds are blowing with might and main and the water temperature is kept at 21 degrees, it is not very comfortable to swim in the waves and walk in the evenings. Otherwise, you can safely choose Hurghada, but only after Sharm, its warm sea (the sea temperature here does not drop below 24 degrees) and beach hotels, which we recommend further when planning a trip on our own.
When buying a tour to Sharm El Sheikh, you should choose East Coast, here are the most favorable conditions for vacation and sun enjoyment.
