Marina, Holiday resort in Egypt
Marina is a resort town on Egypt's Mediterranean coast, located around 240 kilometers west of Alexandria. It spreads along sandy beaches with shallow, clear waters and includes resorts, hotels, and residential complexes for visitors and residents.
Marina was developed in the 1980s as a planned resort area and has since grown into a significant coastal destination for Egyptian and international visitors. The concept followed the pattern of western beach towns with modern infrastructure built for summer vacations.
The town comes alive during warmer months when locals and tourists visit the beaches. Best explored on foot or by local transport, with most facilities and beaches easily accessible.
