While youthful Port Said is often overlooked for Egypt’s legendary capital of Cairo, it’s well worth a look, especially the outstanding beaches north of town.

Rarely is the dichotomy of modern and medieval sensibilities more apparent—skyscrapers tower over earthen houses, and fast cars dart around donkey-drawn carts, as this teeming city of 16 million residents live harmoniously.
