A Look at the Best Beaches in Egypt.

Besides the hustle and bustle of its cities, and the rich history evident in its streets, Egypt’s two coasts mean there are many options to choose from when searching for the most beautiful beaches in Egypt.

Today, we’ve compiled for you a list of the best Mediterranean Sea beaches and the best Red Sea beaches, so you can choose where to head for your next beach holiday in Egypt. Egypt Mediterranean Beaches:

1. Best Beaches in Alexandria:
Alexandria used to be famous for having the top beaches in Egypt, but by time, such areas got too populous and did not retain their stature. Perhaps Al Maamoura Beach and the nearby Tea Island would be worth a day’s visit. You should also head to Al Montazah beach to visit Al Montazah Palace Gardens and take in the beauty of its gardens.

2. Best Beaches in North Coast:
The North Coast has been filled with private resorts, each taking their portion of the seemingly infinite coast. Below are some of the best areas in the North Coast and the most famous resorts in those respective spots.

• Ras Al Hikma: La Vista, Mountain View, Fouka Bay
• Sidi Abdel Rahman: Marassi, Amwaj, Blumar Wadi Degla
• Ghazala Bay: Ghazala Bay Resort, Zoya Ghazala Bay

3. Best Beaches in Marsa Matruh:
Matrouh is famous for its rocky beaches and less developed aura than the North Coast. The waters are generally crystal clear, and there are many public beaches in the city such as Cleopatra Beach, Romel Beach, or Agiba Beach which is one of the most famous beaches in Egypt.

4. Egypt Red Sea Beaches:
Many believe that the best sandy beaches in Egypt are in the Red Sea. While Ain Al Sokhna is the place to go for beaches near Cairo, you’ll usually find the best Egypt beaches in places like Marsa Alam or Dahab.
