Sand City is an open-air museum featuring large-scale sand sculptures created by international artists. The sculptures depict Egyptian pharaohs, world landmarks, movie characters, and mythological figures - some standing over 5 metres tall. The park covers a surprisingly large area and takes about 60-90 minutes to walk through. New sculptures are added or refreshed periodically, so repeat visits can reveal different pieces.

Entry is around EGP 400-500 (EUR 8-10) for adults. The park is located on the main coastal road near Senzo Mall, about 10 minutes by taxi from Sekalla. It is open from 10:00 to 22:00 and is one of the few attractions in Hurghada that works well after dark, as the sculptures are dramatically lit at night. The site has a small cafe and souvenir shop, but no shade - bring a hat for daytime visits.

Pro Tip: Visit in the evening when the sculptures are illuminated and the temperature drops. The lighting transforms the park into something far more atmospheric than a daytime visit suggests.
