Your hotel balcony is the worst seat in the house tonight. π
The Perseid meteor shower is peaking over the Red Sea, and this year there's no moon β the sky stays properly black. From the beach you'll catch five or six meteors an hour. Thirty minutes into the desert, past the last streetlight, the Milky Way turns into a visible band across the sky and the count climbs towards a hundred an hour.
We run out there every evening this week, 19:00 to 22:00:
π Night Meteor Watch by Jeep β no driving licence needed β Peak Night Special β 12 & 13 August, the two best nights π₯ Private Meteor Trip β your group only, your own fire π
Sunset & Stars Combo β sunset over the dunes, then the first meteors
Hotel pickup and drop-off from El Gouna, Hurghada, Makadi and Soma Bay. Bedouin tea and dinner at the camp. Back at your hotel by the end of the night.
Bring a jacket β the desert gets cold once the sun goes.
