Oceanfront view

This view gives a perspective on how close condos can be to the ocean (50 meters) if they are on property that was grandfathered before the law required buildings to be set back 200 meters from the ocean.

There is something missing from this photo, however. There is something unusual about the layout of the outdoor public space at the Crystal Sands condo. I will show you . . . tomorrow.

We are showing photos of Egypt this week on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site.

    Amazingly close to the sea and the views from the balcony are outstanding. I noticed on a previous photo that there are 2 guards at the street gate. Any guard at the beach gate on this side ?
