MARSA GHALEB

Marsa Ghaleb is located just 10 minutes from Marsa Alam airport. This is the first privately owned and operated international commercial airport in Egypt and offers direct flights to many major European cities.  

Marsa Alam Marina Opened in December 2005 and now it offers facilities for up to 1 000 boats. The goal is to become the boating gateway and the leading yachting port in the Middle East.

The proximity to the airport has attracted a number of hotel chains and the resort offers more than 7,000 rooms and features an international style marina similar to the one in El Gouna and the new marina area in Hurghada.

The marina area in Marsa Ghaleb is a bit similar to the one in Hurghada or the one in El Gouna. There are a selection of restaurants along the promenade and plenty of apartments to invest in for anyone with a stack of cash to spend.

The traffic control and custom authorities are located in a building in futuristic style.

"You almost expect Thunderbird III coming whizzing out of the tower any minute" as my colleague Kevin said. 

The Beach is spotless and neat as a new pin as you would expect in a place like Marsa Ghaleb and the surrounding reef invites to lovely snorkelling.

What to do if you're not diving?

Activities around Mars Ghaleb:

There's plenty to do for a non divers in and around Marsa Ghaleb. Of course water sports such as wind surfing, kite surfing and snorkelling together with water skiing, banana boat and pedal boats are available along the beach but there are more land based activities as well. You can go on desert safari in jeeps or on quad bikes or why not dress up like Laurence of Arabia and explore the sand dunes and mountains from the horse-back...

Eat and drink:

Baskin Robbins.

This classic ice cream franchise has found its way all the way down here in the southern Egypt and offers 31 flavours as everywhere else.

Burdous Court.

Very classy establishment with posh restaurant inside and a outdoor sitting area where you can have a cup of traditional ahwa (Turkish coffee) and a shisha (water-pipe)

Costa Coffee.

Here you can get any kind of coffee imaginable with French and Italian names.

Fusion.

Asian restaurant. I promise to check it out a.s.a.p. providing they don't have shark fin soup on the menu... If they do I might pay them another sort of visit...

Grand Café.

Nice outdoor sitting area where you can get a cup of coffee and a cinnamon bun.

Sometime there is live music preformed in the piazza outside the Grand café' on occasions such as the Eid at the end of the holy month of Ramadan.

Pizza Hut.

Pan or thin and crispy... No surprises here. I tried the pan pizza and found it pretty taste less but that might have been a unlucky draw. I've heard the chicken wings and stuff like that is ok.

T.G.I. Friday's.

In here it's always Friday. At least that's what the sign over the door claims. 

Here you can have a beer in relaxed environment and listen to groovy music.
