Where to go, by mood

| Hotels | Entertainment, shows, DJs in all-inclusive resorts | Families, couples, no travel |
Our choice
- To dance: the marina, usually on Friday and Saturday; arrive after 11 pm and leave time for the ride back.
- For a quiet evening: dinner on the marina or in Sakkala, then a drink. See where to eat in Hurghada.
- For couples or adults: the evening cruise, with dinner and sunset, often nicer than a disco: see evening boat trip or Bedouin dinner.
Budget and traps
- Prices: no reliable rate found; alcohol is expensive and the entry to some clubs is included in the first drink. Ask for the menu before ordering.
- Taxis: agree the price before getting in, or use an app; see getting around Hurghada.
- Bars to avoid: one site mentions a bar with a reputation for padding the bill, without naming it; read recent reviews before entering and check the bill.
- Outside tourist areas: dress and behaviour stay more cautious; see scams and safety.
