Mediterranean Coast

The Enchanting Mediterranean Coast: Egypt’s Turquoise Escape

While the Red Sea is famous for its reefs, the Mediterranean Coast of Egypt—often called the "North Coast" or Sahel—is the country’s best-kept secret for those seeking powder-white sands, vibrant history, and high-end coastal living. Stretching from the legendary city of Alexandria to the pristine shores of Marsa Matrouh, this coastline offers a refreshing breeze, a slower pace, and some of the most stunning turquoise waters in the world.

At TourzStore.com, we elevate the typical seaside holiday into a curated Mediterranean experience. From exploring the sunken palaces of Cleopatra to lounging in the exclusive cabanas of Marassi, we provide the local expertise and luxury logistics to ensure your northern escape is nothing short of legendary.


The Jewels of the Mediterranean Coast

Alexandria: The Pearl of the Mediterranean

Step into a city where Hellenistic history meets cosmopolitan charm. Alexandria, founded by Alexander the Great, is a living museum.

  • The Sights: Wander through the Bibliotheca Alexandrina, a modern architectural marvel, or descend into the Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa, one of the Seven Wonders of the Middle Ages.
  • The Vibe: Walk the Corniche at sunset, enjoying the sea breeze before a world-class seafood dinner overlooking the Qaitbay Citadel, which stands on the site of the ancient Lighthouse of Alexandria.

The North Coast (Sahel): Egypt’s Summer Playground

For those who crave luxury and exclusivity, the North Coast is the place to be. This area, particularly Sidi Abdel Rahman and Ras El Hekma, is home to Egypt’s most prestigious resorts.

  • Marassi & Hacienda: These are not just resorts; they are lifestyle hubs featuring championship golf courses, international dining, and private beach clubs.
  • The Water: Unlike the rocky entries of other seas, the Mediterranean here offers soft, white sand and "Maldives-blue" water that remains shallow for hundreds of meters.

Marsa Matrouh: The Egyptian Maldives

Further west lies Marsa Matrouh, a coastal town famous for its natural lagoons and secluded coves.

  • Agiba Beach: Translating to "The Miracle," this beach is nestled between towering cliffs and offers breathtaking views of the swirling blue sea.
  • Cleopatra’s Bath: A natural rock-cut pool where legend says the Queen herself used to bathe with Marc Antony.

El Alamein: A Walk Through History

History buffs will find El Alamein profoundly moving. As a pivotal site of World War II, it hosts the War Museum and the solemn Allied, German, and Italian War Memorials. It is a place of reflection set against a backdrop of incredible natural beauty.
