It is a city and port in the Red Sea Governorate, Egypt. Its ancient name is Yukos Liman (meaning the Greek white port, Λευκός Λιμήν). Qusayr has a long history spanning more than 5,000 years, and from there Queen Hatshepsut began her expedition to Puntland. In the sixteenth century, Sultan Selim I ruled it and still stands in the form of a statue in the heart of the city. The castle has a strategic military importance and today it is considered a peaceful tourist resort with its sandy beaches, clear waters, coral reefs and water sports.
