El Gouna itself is about 30-45mins drive from Hurghada airport and is a purpose built tourist complex, beautifully set around many marinas and canals. As far as evening entertainments are concerned, there are hundreds of restaurants set around the complex which you can move around with buses or canal taxis! The area we go to is called the Abu Tig marina, very pretty with a Mediterranean feel. There is even a golf course!
The dive sites are perfect for all levels of divers with a few special areas. The best area which is very close albeit weather dependant is the 4 wrecks of Abu Nuhas (there is a reason there are 4 wrecks so we have to wait for good weather!). The wrecks range from the absolutely picturesque Ghiannis D to the ancient Carnatic which sunk with Gold on board! Good luck and remember Indepth take 10% of all gold found!
Turtles Inn Hotel and Dive Center has only 28 rooms the atmosphere is intimate and friendly, and can offer an attention to detail that you might not find in larger hotels. 20 rooms are overlooking a beautiful indoor garden with swimmingpool. 3 rooms are overlooking the Abutig Marina and 6 rooms are having a courtyard view. Every room is fully air-conditioned, with bathroom, telephone, and satellite TV.
Turtles is perfect for empty dive sites and easy access to the boats and restaurants.
