Hurghada Museums and Hurghada Art Galleries
(Hurghada, Egypt, EG)



Hurghada's museum and art gallery scene is not exactly booming, as most visitors come here for the sea and sand rather than cultural attractions.

The small but interesting Marine Biology Museum provides good preparation for keen divers and snorkellers, while Hurghada's new National Museum is amongst the main highlights.

Here are Hurghada's best museums and art galleries.
