Anchoring:
Moor off the SE corner of the commercial dock at 27°13.796’N 33°50.693’E which is deep but free of danger. Once formalities are completed, contact the Hurghada Marina and they will probably have space for you.
Hurghada Marina
The Marina is reported to be very safe and is a popular place to leave your boat for an extended period of time.
Remember, you cannot leave the Marina without Coastguard permission. Every time you go sailing you must call your agent 24 hours in advance, inform him what you intend to do, where you are going and when you should be back. He will obtain permission from the Coastguard. Also, inform the Marina.
If you are going out of the Hurghada area the agent will give you the original cruising permit.
If you need to stay out longer, just call your agent and inform him of the change. Remember to call your agent when you get back.
Do not leave or enter the Marina at night.
Shi’b al Irj - position 27°24.822’N 33°51.769’E
Only 10 miles to the north of Hurghada Marina. Anchor in 10m, sand. Wide and easy, but enter carefully between the coral heads using Google Earth.
See this 2023 report from SV Tuvalu for "stop-over" anchorages if heading up the Red Sea.
