Romantic history of the island

On the way to the island you will learn a beautiful legend about the Roman commander Mark Antony and his love for the magnificent Queen Cleopatra.

This small island became a wedding gift from Mark Antony to his beloved with the hope of spending their honeymoon in this paradise. But Cleopatra showed her capricious nature and did not like the local sand, it was rough and burned her beautiful feet.

Then, without thinking twice, the Roman emperor ordered the sand on the beach to be replaced. And on the same day, several huge ships set off to the banks of the Nile for white soft sand. Whether the wayward beauty took pity, our guide will definitely tell you, and at the same time you will be able to appreciate the beautiful beach yourself.

Unique sand on Cleopatra Beach

If you take some sand in your hand, you will see that it looks like beads, round and smooth. Inside, the grains of sand are hollow, which gives them several unique properties.
