Marsa Alam
The city of Marsa Alam is a jewel among Egyptian tourist destinations. This quiet coastal town offers the best of both worlds — a perfect respite from the crowded streets of Cairo, as well as sunny beaches and pristine coral reefs for active holidaymakers wishing to experience scuba diving, snorkeling, and sailing. The city’s coastline runs 217 kilometers.
Due to its crystal clear water and white sandy beaches, it is also known as the “Egyptian Maldives”. Among the most famous beaches around Marsa Alam is Abu Dabab beach. In Abu Dabab, turtles are a common sight. For tourists who seek to see something less typical, there is marine wildlife like crocodile fish and octopuses. It’s also the perfect destination for kite-surfing enthusiasts.
