Where is the North Coast located?
The Egyptian northern coast extends the length of the country on the Mediterranean Sea. Where the coast line starts from the city of Rafah in the far east until it reaches the city of Salloum on the Libyan border. As for the division of the coast, it is divided into three main parts:
The eastern coast, which includes the city of Rafah, Al-Arish, and even Port Said.
The northern Delta coast, which includes the city of Rashid, Damietta, Ras El-Bar and Baltim. This part of the coast is considered the highest in population density as a result of the fertility of the soil in this region and the presence of three large lakes, Burullus, Idku and Mariout, which encouraged the stability of the population throughout the year.
The West Coast, which is the main destination for summer tourism, extends from Alexandria, passing through El Alamein, Marsa Matrouh, and even reaching the city of Salloum.
The West Coast is currently divided into two main parts, the old North Coast, which starts from Kilo 21 to Kilo 105 and includes the North Coast Marina. As for the new coast, it starts from the city of El Alamein and includes all the new tourist villages that witness an increase every year.
What is the nature and climate like in the North Coast?
The northern Egyptian coast is characterized by its charming and picturesque coastal nature. The waters of the Mediterranean there are characterized by purity, high waves, and charming turquoise blue tones. Not only that, but also the beaches on the northern coast are characterized by soft white sand. As a result of the absence of any mountain ranges along the northern coast, many villages were able to own large areas for their projects, enabling them to carry out construction operations easily.
The North Coast in Egypt always proves its ability to dazzle all its visitors. Each region has an attractive atmosphere that you can never get tired of. Among the new places that have become very popular are areas such as Sidi Abdel Rahman, Ras Al Hikma Bay and Sidi Hanish.
The coastal climate has always been known for its mildness in the summer and for it tends to be cold in the winter, and sometimes coastal cities are exposed to some torrential rains and snow. This point is one of the reasons why the North Coast was for many years limited to being a summer destination only. However, currently, with the Egyptian government's plans to establish livable coastal cities throughout the year, the trend is now to establish cities through which the state seeks to afford to increase the area that accommodates the population density that is expected to increase in the coming years. In this direction, the state encourages citizens to invest in permanent homes in new cities such as New Alamein and New Mansoura, which completely overlook the Mediterranean Sea and are designed to be a tourist destination, not just a residential one.
When did real estate and urban development begin in the North Coast?
The interest in real estate development in the North Coast began in the sixties, when Egoth built the Alamein Hotel in the Sidi Abdel Rahman area, and later Emaar developed the hotel. Then, in the 1980s, the movement of building tourist villages began, starting from the Al-Ajami area on the borders of Alexandria to the city of Marsa Matrouh.
As for the real and huge investment movement witnessed by the northern coast, it began at the beginning of the third millennium. When the tendency to own chalets and villas became a very desirable goal among Egyptians, the demand for individuals to invest in coastal units of their own also became increasing. From here, real estate companies, both national and local, as well as regional companies, began to pump a lot of money to own land on the coast and build villages and resorts.
