The holiday destination El Quseir is located 130 Km south of Hurghada. This small city is characterized by beautiful and untouched diving areas, which are an absolute paradise for divers and snorkelers.  In addition to offering pristine beaches and a wide range of water sports, El Qusseir also has something for the amateur historian.  A few kilometers from the hotels is the old town with a historical harbor, which is considered to be the oldest in Egypt. A newly located ruin of the fort of Sultan Selim, built in the 16th century is another site worth visiting.
