Marsa Alam:
This popular resort is
135 Km south of Al-Qusseir and 270 Km south
of Jiving, and is connected to Edfu by a 289
Km long desert road. Due to the proximity of
Luxor and the shrine of Abu AI-Hassan AI-Shazli,
it has become a big tourist centre, which
avails the tourist of the many monumental
sites and its exotic beaches.
Marsa Alam’s
International airport was inaugurated a few
years ago and now receives many flights each
day. The port of Ras Ghareb, which is
located about I Km to the north of Marsa
Alam, is capable of receiving all luxurious
cruises and yachts (both local and
international) and can safely handle up to
1000 yachts of all sizes up to a size of 60
metres long and 4 metres deep.
