Safaga is mainly a watersports and diving destination, and as such, entertainment revolves mostly around early evenings and quiet drinks with friends at the hotels. In town there are only a couple of bars where local expats meet – or, on the picturesque side of it, you can choose to spend some time in the typical “ahwa” or cafeteria, where the locals meet after work to play backgammon, smoke a waterpipe and watch TV. Nevertheless, the sporty local community often organises great beach parties in some excellent venues, such as the surf hut at the Holiday Inn, with its cool wooden terrace right on the beach. Mingle with the locals to be updated of ongoing parties and barbecues. Apart from this, the hotels and resorts offer the customary selection of oriental evenings with belly dancing, piano bar evenings and special weekly theme events.

Safaga is famous for its watersports activities with its large sandy bay and crystalline waters. It is a paradise for divers, wind surfers and snorkelers. With its proximity to the Eastern Desert gives breathtaking views and fascinating landscapes.
