Aida beach

Aida beach is the first breach in Montaza as you enter the East gate. It is a small private beach. It is done in a way that you got to miss it if you dont know it. It is hidden between big dense trees, it has no main gate, just a narrow tack between each two cabins. Each track is guarded by a security man 24x7. If you say about Marina that it is the beach of the upper upper social class of Egypt then Aida beach are owned and restricted to the top elite. Political elite and business elite. It is even more classy than the other private beach that occupies the middle zone of the Montazah gulf. I have a resourceful smart friend who entered us ( illegally) two times into Aida. Of course we located ourselves in a place where we won't be noticed. I saw unimaginable atmosphere. The beach has short palm trees all along so people sit under the trees. Nobody uses umbrellas. Pretty girls, mostly topless with their boy friends relaxing under the trees. Young women totally naked with face down for the sake to complete sunbath. Drinks are everywhere. It is a public atmosphere tht I never seen before. It was not crowded. Few cabins were only opened. I saw two of the celebrities there. Dr. .... Azmi and his family, and ....El Fiki and his family, separately. That was 15 years ago. Who knows who is there now maybe GM and AM both have cabins there. Remember its value is not in the luxory, they are all torn out old cabins since King Farouk. It is the people around you who make it what it is.
