Workation in El Gouna: the essentials
Orascom Development began building El Gouna in 1990 on a stretch of Red Sea shore 20 km north of Hurghada, and the whole town still feels like one company's project. Some 20 islands and a web of lagoons make up its 10 km of coastline, with hotels and apartments gathered around Downtown and Abu Tig Marina. Kitesurfers use the lagoon, an annual film festival brings Egyptian celebrities, and the town has its own hospital. Coworking is on offer too. Tuk-tuks handle the short distances and Hurghada International Airport is about 25 km away. The drawback is the gated, slightly artificial atmosphere, which can feel confining after some weeks.
