This museum of sand sculptures in Hurghada elevates the process of building sand castles to a whole new level and turns beachside play into serious works of art. Sand City Hurghada contains 42 sculptures and 17 reliefs, all made entirely out of sand and water. It is organised into two sections, Historical Art and Wonderland Art. In the Historical section, you will discover Egyptian gods, legendary leaders and powerful empires, all immortalised in enormous blocks of sand. Relive your childhood in the Wonderland section by visiting your favourite superheroes, cartoon characters and fairy-tale explorers.

Spend the day walking past the rows and rows of impressive sand art in Egypt’s only open-air museum. Be astounded by the skill, patience and care put into each and every one of these majestic sculptures. For the thoroughly inspired children, Sand City also provides a “Magic Castle” workshop where children of all ages can learn the basics of sand art.

With numerous historical and mind-blowing sand sculptures that you once thought was beyond conceivable, watch these towering sand sculptures come to life before your very eyes!
