El Gouna is chic, calm, and exceptionally easy to live in. It’s one of the most well-structured towns in Egypt—once you’re inside, you rarely need to leave. Everything flows: marinas, beaches, sports, dining, and nightlife. Days often revolve around the sea, especially the iconic Bayoud boat day, while evenings stay polished and relaxed rather than loud or chaotic.
