Picture this: you’re standing on powdery white sands, the kind that squeaks under your bare feet. In front of you, the Red Sea glistens like a pane of glass, its turquoise hues shifting with the sunlight. Behind you, the golden silence of the desert hums gently in the background. You haven’t stepped into a fantasy—this is Ozirea Island, the freshest escape in Hurghada’s beach scene, and trust me, it’s something else.
Forget everything you think you know about island getaways in Egypt. This one? It’s a game-changer.
Located just off the coast of Hurghada, Ozirea Island is not your average Red Sea sandbar with a few umbrellas tossed around. It’s a carefully designed private retreat, a floating island of sorts, created for those who crave serenity but don’t want to sacrifice style. You won’t find loud music or plastic loungers here. This place is built for moments — quiet ones, luxurious ones, and sometimes, just incredibly photogenic ones.
You might even hear it described as a “Maldives experience in Egypt,” and while that’s a big claim, it’s not far off.
Ozirea isn’t the kind of place you just drive up to. The only way to reach it is via boat — and honestly, that’s part of the appeal. Most trips start at the Hurghada Marina, where you’ll board a sleek speedboat or a stylish yacht, depending on the package. The ride itself is about 30-40 minutes, but it’s more than just a commute — it’s an experience.
You cut through waters so clear, you can count fish swimming below the surface. Sometimes, dolphins make an appearance, swimming alongside like they’re welcoming you. It sets the tone before you even arrive.
When you finally set foot on the island, the first thing that hits you is how uncluttered it is. The design of Ozirea leans heavily into minimalism — natural wood structures, white linen canopies fluttering in the breeze, and enough open space to make you feel like the island is yours alone.
There’s a beach bar, some shaded lounging areas, hammocks hanging lazily between poles, and soft background music that’s never too loud, never too much. Think Ibiza chill meets barefoot luxury.
Here’s where it gets interesting — because despite its calm vibe, there’s no shortage of things to do.
If your idea of a perfect day includes sipping a cool drink under a sunshade while waves lap gently nearby, Ozirea was made for you. Sunbeds are limited and well-spaced, giving you that rare commodity in tourism: space and quiet.
Bring your mask or borrow one — the reefs around Ozirea are among the best in the Hurghada area. We’re talking neon-colored fish, coral gardens that look almost surreal, and warm, clear waters that seem like they belong in a National Geographic documentary.
Let’s not pretend this isn’t important: Ozirea is insanely photogenic. From the floating swings in the sea to the open-deck seating areas built for sunset watching, every corner is designed for that perfect, envy-inducing snapshot.
Lunch is usually part of the package, and it’s surprisingly refined. Think grilled seafood, fresh salads, fruit platters, and juices — all served to your table as you watch the horizon blur with the sky.
Some trips include live music or a DJ spinning chill beats as the sun dips into the sea. The vibe? Euphoric, but never chaotic. You’re not in a beach club. You’re in a moment.
Ozirea isn’t for everyone — and that’s its charm.
Couples looking for a romantic escape? This is your spot.
Solo travelers in need of silence and sea? You’ll feel at home.
Small groups of friends who prefer conversation over chaos? Absolutely.
Families with kids might find the calm too calm, and those chasing all-day parties will probably want to check out other parts of Hurghada. But for those in search of elegance, intentional design, and natural beauty, Ozirea Island is a revelation.
Egypt’s Red Sea coast is warm year-round, but if you want to avoid the peak heat, October to April is prime time. Milder temperatures, calmer seas, and fewer tourists make for the perfect island day.
Still, even in summer, early trips (usually departing around 8 AM) help you beat the heat while soaking in the best of what Ozirea has to offer.
Go Private if you can — smaller groups mean more flexibility and better photo ops without strangers in the background.
Check Inclusions — make sure your trip includes lunch, snorkeling gear, and access to all parts of the island.
Ask About Extras — some tours include drone photography or drinks packages for an extra fee.
Booking can be done through most Hurghada tour operators, and prices vary depending on the season and level of luxury.
There’s something about Ozirea that lingers with you after you leave. Maybe it’s the sheer beauty of the place, or the way the staff seem to genuinely care if you’re having a good time. Maybe it’s the quiet — a rare, intentional quiet — that you just don’t get in most tourist destinations anymore.
Ozirea Island isn’t just a destination. It’s a pause button.
And in a world where we’re always rushing somewhere, that alone makes it worth visiting
