Overview
Marsa Alam is a captivating tourist town nestled along the western shore of the Red Sea in south-eastern Egypt. Its transformation from a humble fishing village to a sought-after destination began in 1995, fueled by investments from the Kuwaiti Al-Kharafi Group. With its crystal-clear waters and pristine white sandy beaches, Marsa Alam has earned the moniker of the “Egyptian Maldives”.
Abu Dabab beach is one of its renowned stretches, where turtles are a common sight. Marine enthusiasts can also encounter fascinating creatures like crocodilefish and octopuses.
