Between gates 6 and 7, there lies a quaint little beach called “The Spot”. It’s a public beach, but it has music playing in the back ground, as well as umbrellas and beach chairs to rent and drink are served.
Some friends used to tell me that The Spot was not a ‘cool’ place to hang out. So I went with some prejudices to check the beach out (last time I went to The Spot was roughly 2 years ago).
The first thing that I noticed was the very chill atmosphere of the beach and the orderliness it was managed with. The water was relatively very clean and without the occasional clumps of sea weed (which I personally don’t mind) you usually run into in most other beaches.
The umbrellas cost 30LE and the chairs 10 LE. There were plenty of people but it wasn’t annoyingly crowded. Light relaxing music was softly playing in the background and combined with the nice breeze, created a very relaxing atmosphere.
There was a little café called Fresco where they were serving both and cold drinks and some deserts (naturally over priced, but hey, that’s economics for ya!), the service was good, but not excellent.
All in all, a great beach and a great place to work on your tan, it’s also very family friendly. I definitely went home with a better perception of the beach when I came in.
