Pickalbatros Jungle Aqua Park Resort, Water park and hotel in Hurghada, Egypt
Description
Pickalbatros Jungle Aqua Park Resort is a large hotel with an attached water park on the shores of the Red Sea in the Egyptian city of Hurghada. The property spreads across several buildings with rooms, restaurants, slides, and swimming pools of different sizes.
History
The complex was built in the early 2000s as Hurghada started to attract more families and guests looking for longer stays with water activities. The resort followed a regional trend of combining beach holidays with large entertainment facilities on the Red Sea.
Culture
The name refers to a tropical theme with palms and greenery scattered between different areas of the hotel. On some evenings, outdoor spaces host traditional music where guests can experience Egyptian rhythms and dances.
Practical
The grounds sit in a quiet area outside the city center and offer beach access with shallow entry into the water. Walking between different areas works best, though some paths can be tiring in the heat.
Did you know?
Some pools are named after different regions and have their own themed areas with matching decoration and planting. At one spot, there is a smaller open-air museum with replica statues and reliefs that visitors can explore without a guide.
