For those looking for accommodation in Ras Sudr ( راس سدر‎ in Arabic), know that the area has great value-for-money hotels. Although it’s not a popular destination, Ras Sudr is only a 3-hour drive from downtown Cairo. The beach with blue and calm water attracts many young people to practice Kitesurfing.

We took advantage of our free weekend to take a dip in the city’s sea. One of our Egyptian friends has a travel agency and booked the hotel and van to take our group on Friday morning, with the return scheduled for Saturday at the end of the day. For those who don’t know, these are the days of the weekend here. Muslims have Friday as their holy day.
