How Far Is Sunrise Royal Makadi From Hurghada Airport?
From Hurghada Airport, the journey to Sunrise Royal Makadi takes approximately 30 minutes by private car, depending on traffic and road conditions. The route heads south from Hurghada, passing the Hurghada South checkpoint before continuing toward the Makadi Bay resort area.
The final part of the journey toward Makadi Bay includes some less-maintained sections of road, with potholes in places, so the ride can feel less smooth toward the end of the journey.
