Starry skies like no other. đ
When the last ember of daylight fades from the Sinai dunes, a spectacular transformation takes place above you. Free from city lights and crowded resorts, the desert sky over Makadi Bay reveals a celestial panorama that few ever experience. At Makadi Bay Safari, our Starry Skies evening tour invites you to step into a world where constellations blaze overhead, shooting stars streak across the heavens, and the Milky Way unfurls its silvery ribbon from horizon to horizon.
A Night Beyond Imagination
Your journey begins with a comfortable transfer from your Makadi Bay or Hurghada resort to our secluded desert camp. As the moon rises and twilight deepens, our guides set the stage for an unforgettable stargazing session. Plush cushions and low lanterns create an intimate lounge on the sands, while a crackling campfire adds warmth and ambiance. Youâll soon forget the bustle of daytime excursions and lose yourself in the hush of the desert night.
Telescope Tours & Guided Skywalks
For a closer look at our cosmic neighbors, we bring high-powered telescopes to the dunes. Peer at the craters of the moon, trace the rings of Saturn, and glimpse the cloud bands of Jupiter. Our knowledgeable guidesâpart astronomers, part storytellersâwill point out seasonal constellations and share ancient Bedouin legends of how desert nomads once navigated these very skies. Whether youâre a seasoned astrophile or simply curious, every glance through the eyepiece feels like a voyage to another world.
Bedouin Nights & Desert Delights
Stargazing wouldnât be complete without indulging in Bedouin hospitality. Midway through your skyward exploration, savor a traditional tea ceremony under the starsâfragrant mint tea served in delicate glass cups, accompanied by sweet date pastries and freshly baked flatbread. As you sip, listen to soft oud melodies and discover how the desertâs inhabitants have read the heavens for generations, using stars to guide caravans and mark the seasons.
Capture the Moment
Donât miss the chance to photograph the magic. Our camp is perfectly positioned for night photography, and weâre happy to share tips on long exposures, tripod setups, and framing techniques. Whether youâre capturing the Milky Way arcing above dune silhouettes or the fleeting sparkle of a meteor shower, these images will become cherished mementos of your Makadi Bay adventure.
