El Mina Mosque
مسجد الميناء
A landmark mosque beside Hurghada's harbour, with twin minarets and a white dome reflected in the Red Sea. Visitors may enter outside prayer times.
El Mina Mosque was built around 2012 on the waterfront between Hurghada's old port and the new marina. Its two tall minarets and white dome blend Ottoman and Mamluk styles, making it the most striking landmark in the city. Visitors may enter outside prayer times. Women must cover their hair and wear long sleeves and long trousers (cloaks are available at the entrance), and shoes must be removed inside. It is a few minutes' walk from the marina, and visiting in the evening together with the seaside promenade is ideal. The mosque is closed to visitors during Friday midday prayers.
