Egypt is an independent Arab Republic and is located in northeast Africa and approximately 6% of the Sinai Peninsula. It is washed by two seas: the north of the country is the Mediterranean, which the Egyptians call the White, and the east is washed by the Red. The seas of Egypt and their coasts have a completely different climate, depending on seasonal winds. In the Red Sea, tourists can afford to swim all year, and in the Mediterranean season it is open from May to the end of October. Therefore, we can say that the seas of Egypt are equally beautiful in absolutely all resort towns.
