A military-affiliated village with great amenities and one of the best family-friendly beaches in Sokhna.

Rocket Beach Ain Sokhna is a holiday village operated by the Artillery House of the Armed Forces in Suez Governorate. It's one of the most popular Armed Forces villages — civilian guests love it for the reasonable price relative to what's on offer. The whole place is kept spotlessly clean year-round, with plenty of essential and recreational amenities. Most visitors rate the private beach 10/10 thanks to its many perks: water that's warm in winter and mild in summer, clean sand, calm waves, and a set of water games on the beach for adults plus a separate area for kids.

Rocket Beach El Nada — Ain Sokhna

Guests often call it The Rocket Village Ain Sokhna — not just for the Armed Forces tie-in, but for the quality of service it offers to both civilians and Egyptian military officers. The village is close to Cairo — about 460 km away, or roughly three hours by car along the new international highway. You can use the village on a day-use basis, with a few restrictions (no pool access, no water games on day-use) — though on some days these can be added for a surcharge. Guests who book a room or chalet get full access: pool, water games, one daily meal per person, and beach access at night.
