We are going in January, we take wetsuits with us, is it possible to leave them to dry after the swim (they won’t steal them), and go and have a snack ourselves. Yes, where and with what, in the period between the main meals?

There are no snacks.
At 10-11 days in a liquor store on the beach (you can’t call it a bar at all), they put a tray with pita and cheese. Disappears in 15 min.
In the main bar at 16-17 like evening tea, they put canapes.
If you have an ordinary all-in-one, then in winter, when there is no influx of people, lunch for everyone is served in a restaurant on the beach. You can have lunch there after the swim. Or in the main restaurant.
If you have a snack, then lunch is only in a cafe on the mountain.

Thank you very much for the answer!
And how does the restaurant on the beach work, only for lunch and dinner? And how does it differ from the main one?

As for the wetsuit, it's better not to risk it and leave it only under supervision. "Feed" the Egyptian from the dive center of your hotel and leave the wetsuit with him so as not to carry it.

Thanks for the answer! Very useful advice on "baiting", which means you can leave a backpack there.))

Thanks again! This year I went to Egypt for the first time, and fell in love with this sea! We were in Makadi Fort Arabesque, while I’m snorkeling, but I have a dream - diving! I’m only afraid I have a hernia, but I think this time I’ll take a chance.

This bay has excellent sea and a good reef. From the pontoon to the right around the corner is a wild beach and a steeper reef. But there is a place where it pulls into the sea from the reef. Fins are required. And attentiveness. There is a pier to the left at the exit from the bay. Schools of fish were seen near it. When they sailed back, they went out to the pontoon reef of the oasis (the leg cramped), and walked through their beach to their own. Security did not drive anymore, because. we left the area.

We were in February and May. I have both in my profile. little has changed in the hotel during this time in a beautiful way. The hotel itself is on a rock, and the beach is under a rock, there is less wind. But on the pontoon, when leaving the water, it is felt. It is better to go to the pontoon in slippers, there is broken glass and sharp stones.
Dive center to the right as you go down to the beach. A small cardboard shack :) but the guy is sitting there normal, in a fur jacket :) he is cool :)
Water is normal. And the pools are ice cold. They heat only at the spa pool.
The restaurant with a beautiful view of the sea (the second wonderful thing in this hotel after the bay) is open for lunch and dinner. Dinner can be by appointment. Everything depends on the season.
This restaurant always serves grilled meat, chicken and fish. Excellent and tasty. Salad or soup with crab. Or their armor :))) less choice of sweets and fruits. We almost always dined here - without leaving the sea and with a beautiful view. Food selection is good.

Yes, you can swim before the beach closes, approximately until 17-17.30. Until sunset. As soon as the sun starts to set.

Thanks for the detailed description of the beauties of the sea, I can’t wait to compare them with Makadi, The restaurant on the beach is great, but is there anything sold from the food on the beach during the day, maybe there is some kind of coffee? I’m afraid to take sandwiches to the beach, they might go bad. that I pester with questions, in life I'm a normal uncle, but on "hikes" I'm used to getting ready thoroughly.)) How is the hotel with currency exchange? Did you use the safe? Where to go in the evening?

That's right, solidity is good :))) There was a safe. Cafe next to the rock on the right. Behind the shisha bar. But it is paid. We didn't eat there, but they say it's okay. Very nice view of the rock. And local Egyptians more or less often tried to invite us to this cafe with money when we rested in other hotels. They wouldn’t have been invited to a completely dumb place, otherwise what to do with the “poisoned and upset” girls :))) but this is all from the outside, they themselves were not there.

If you take cheese with butter from the refrigerator to the beach, the butrik will not deteriorate. Wrap in a towel with a cold bottle of water.
There are places to walk. Near 1000 and 1 night, near walking street El Mercato. Close to the old town by taxi or minibus. Everything is cheaper here. Naama Bay with Hollywood Park and a large beautiful singing fountain. You can go to Soho Square, there are a lot of shows in the evening and there are fewer fountains. Don't get bored.

Definitely go. It is decorated in the local colorful style, like our Puzata hut. The view in the evening is amazing.
Lots of good cafes in the old town or naama bay. Cooking fresh fish. Go to Fares fish restaurant. The prices are reasonable and the food is delicious. Dinner about $20. For two or less.

Thanks;)))
The Old Market is the Old City. Be sure to visit everywhere. Moreover, 14 days of rest, enough time :))
By the way, for 100 and 1 night there is a Metro store, you can buy decent food there, if you happen to. And near the hotel itself there are many shops, where you will find fruit, water and chips. Their juices are excellent juhayna, it seems. Maybe I mixed up a couple of letters. Especially guava.
Have a great holiday!

There are fares in the old city, and in mercato, and in Naama Bay. In Naama, it is worth visiting Genena City (by the way, there are fares and located not far from the descent stairs to Naama), there, at the exit to the stairs to Naama, there is a stunning view of the bay.
Juhain juices are the best and choose juices that say: no sugar add. These are juices without sugar and of very good quality.
Go to the old market after dinner, there is a cafe next to the waterfall, they often give performances after 20. You can watch it for free))) (the first gate of the old market).
If you need a map of charm, download it from my website or give me an email address in a personal message, I will send you an even more detailed map of your area.
