Hurghada · Makadi Bay, south of Hurghada

Aqua Park — Jaz Resort

Two parks on one ticket, and above all: almost no queue for the slides.

€€€ High end

The water parks of the Jaz complex, known for how fast they move: you string rides together instead of spending the day on stairs. That is the argument from those who compare them with the coast's other parks, slide quality being equal.

The extra bit

The ticket covers both parks: start with the far one, it empties first at the end of the day.

Know before you go

Outside visitors' access depends on how full the complex is: call the same day rather than drive thirty kilometres for nothing.

    The harbour promenade: yachts on one side, terraces on the other, and the whole town out after dark.
