04 What to do in El Masyaf? 04 What to do in El Masyaf? The barefoot experience. Cairo can be often stressful and hectic, all we can think about during the week is our weekend by the beach in Sahel El Shamaly. We hit the road and we can t wait to feel the water on our skin and reconnect with family again. Imagine arriving at bawabat El Masyaf and opening the car window to smell the salty breeze, driving on the main spine road, spotting the sea with its bright blue and the surrounding palm trees. Bike lanes with their racks, open parks, farmers market, El Marsa with beach restaurant, sport courts, observatory tower, shops and commercial areas going back to basics with the rudimental elements of life and nature. Run towards the crashing waves, feel the warm water and the sun on your bare skin. Go relax on the hammock above the water with one foot dipped in Note: Amenities & facilities are subject to change.
