## The 3 named beaches

Where each beach sits and what it is known for. Names and areas come from documented sources, kept to what we can verify.

### Zeytuna Beach

El Gouna's best-known town beach, with a short shuttle-boat hop to Zaytuna Island.

### Mangroovy Beach

The beach the Mangroovy area is named for, long associated with wind sports.

### Moods Beach

A documented El Gouna beach, one of the three named spots along the lagoon coast.

We list beach names and area only. There are no day-pass prices, ratings, or reviews here — those change and we do not verify them.
