Can you reserve sun loungers on Egyptian resort beaches and how does it work?

At Palma and El Palacio beaches, sun loungers are generally available, though many are left overnight with towels or belongings on them. Palma beach is closer, El Palacio beach is larger. You may need to drag a lounger from the pool area to the beach yourself.

Officially reserving loungers is not allowed, but in practice everyone does it. There are usually plenty of free loungers, especially on the beach. The pool area is the most competitive spot to claim a lounger.

Many beachgoers don't actually need a sun lounger by the sea — the main concern is finding somewhere safe to leave belongings while swimming. Lockers on the beach would be a practical solution.
