Sharm El Sheikh
Uncover Sharm El Sheikh, a glamorous Red Sea resort at the tip of Sinai, of spectacular reefs, marine parks, and clear warm seas.
Hurghada
Sail to Hurghada, a lively Red Sea resort and diving hub, of vibrant reefs, offshore islands, and warm sunny waters.

Highlights

Egypt Yacht Charter
Egypt yacht charters offer the freedom to experience the destination on your own terms. Each itinerary can be shaped around the way you want to travel, with the flexibility to move between time on the water, moments ashore and the simple pleasure of life on board.
Red Sea Diving
The Red Sea ranks among the world’s foremost diving grounds, prized for its clarity and reef walls that drop straight into deep blue water. Its best-known dive is the SS Thistlegorm, a British supply ship sunk by German bombers on 6 October 1941 near Ras Mohammed, its holds still packed with wartime motorcycles, trucks and rifles. Around a tenth of the Red Sea’s fish species live nowhere else on Earth, the legacy of its long isolation from the Indian Ocean.
Ancient Wonders
The pyramids, Luxor and the Nile lie within reach, and the wonders keep expanding: the Grand Egyptian Museum opened beside the Giza plateau on 1 November 2025, its galleries built around uninterrupted views of the pyramids themselves. It now holds the full Tutankhamun collection, reunited in one place for the first time since the tomb’s 1922 discovery. Combined with Luxor’s Valley of the Kings, Egypt offers depth of history no other Red Sea destination can match.
Vibrant Coral Reefs
Vibrant coral reefs teem with marine life along nearly the whole Egyptian coast, growing as fringing reefs close enough to shore that guests can snorkel straight off the yacht. Scientists studying the northern Gulf of Aqaba have identified its corals as unusually resistant to heat stress, among the most resilient reef systems studied anywhere, which has drawn international research interest even as reefs elsewhere struggle with warming seas. Visibility regularly exceeds twenty metres through much of the year.
Golden Desert Shores
Golden desert shores and islands line the coast, backed by the granite peaks of the Eastern Desert, which rise to 2,187 metres at Gabal Sha’ib El Banat between Hurghada and Safaga, the highest point on mainland Egypt outside Sinai. The contrast between bare rock, gold sand and turquoise water is immediate and constant along the whole coastline. Sheltered coves beneath these cliffs offer idyllic anchorages far removed from the fertile green ribbon of the Nile Valley inland.
Warm Turquoise Waters
Warm, clear turquoise water bathes the coast year-round, sustained by conditions found almost nowhere else: no permanent river flows into the Red Sea, and evaporation under the desert sun makes it one of the saltiest and warmest seas on Earth. Surface temperatures typically range from the low twenties in winter to near thirty degrees Celsius in summer, keeping the water swimmable through every season and giving the reefs below their striking clarity.

Egypt Charter Guide

Everything you need to know before chartering a yacht in Egypt, from the best time to visit to where to drop anchor.

01

When is the best time to charter along Egypt's Red Sea coast?

The Red Sea is diveable and warm nearly year-round, but most charters run from April to November, when air and water temperatures are highest and conditions calmest. July and August bring the strongest heat, often above 40°C ashore, while spring and autumn offer a gentler balance of warm water and comfortable days for exploring both the coast and inland sites like Luxor.

02

Which airport should we fly into to join a Red Sea charter?

It depends on where the itinerary starts: Hurghada International Airport (HRG) and Sharm El Sheikh International Airport (SSH) both handle frequent international flights and suit charters based on the central and northern coast, while Marsa Alam International Airport (RMF) is the natural gateway for itineraries further south. Cairo International Airport is the better choice if the Nile and the pyramids open the trip.

03

Where are the best anchorages along the Egyptian Red Sea coast?

The coast offers a wide spread of anchorages: El Gouna and Dahab in the north for their sheltered lagoons and easy provisioning, Safaga around the centre, and Nuweiba and Taba further up the Gulf of Aqaba for quieter, less developed calls. Further south towards Marsa Alam and Hamata, anchorages grow more remote and the coastline noticeably wilder.

04

How many days should we plan for a Red Sea charter?

A week to ten days covers a single stretch of coast comfortably, combining diving, desert excursions and a resort call or two. Guests wanting to pair the coast with Egypt’s ancient sites often add three or four days inland, flying to Luxor or Cairo partway through the charter, since the Nile Valley and the Red Sea are best treated as two distinct legs of the same trip rather than one continuous itinerary.

05

Can the yacht itself transit the Suez Canal to reach the Mediterranean?

Yes, though it takes planning: a canal agent must be booked well in advance, a local pilot boards for the roughly 80-mile passage, and most yachts break the transit overnight at Ismailia rather than attempting it in one day. Crew cannot go ashore, swim or launch tenders during the crossing. Many charter itineraries instead treat the Red Sea and Mediterranean as separate legs, flying guests between the two rather than repositioning the yacht through the canal.
