The artificial lagoon system in El-Gouna makes it one of the best water-skiing destinations in Egypt. One lagoon in particular is traditionally used for water-skiing and slaloms: the one located next to the Sheraton Miramar Hotel. It is accessible from a dock near the El-Gouna lighthouse. The amazing lagoon has been especially designed for water-skiing: it’s 850 metres long and 2.5 metres deep, and a large sandbank prevents the sea waves from entering the course. The lagoon is also conveniently sheltered from the winds by the hotels that are located on the opposite side of the lagoon.
You don’t have to be a guest of the Sheraton to practice this sport on your holiday, but it is preferable to book your ride(s) beforehand. The place tends to get a bit crowded.
