According to the most recent update, access to another hotel's beach in Sharm may be allowed for a fee, with about EGP 200 mentioned as the entry price.
Free beach access through a café was described as unlikely. There was also uncertainty about whether there is any beach access route from Santorini at all.
A few days earlier, travelers reported many guests from Gafy hotel using a beach where they were not usually allowed. This suggests access rules can change depending on the day, crowd levels, or arrangements on site.
Some hotels in Sharm El Sheikh may have inconvenient beach arrangements: the hotel beach itself can be paid, and there may even be an extra charge for the transfer, so guests sometimes choose a different paid beach instead.
