El Alamein – the "Egyptian Maldives" of the Mediterranean 🇪🇬🌊

White sand, azure sea, modern hotels – and a completely different atmosphere from Egypt. El Alamein is located on the Mediterranean coast, west of Alexandria, and is especially comfortable for summer and autumn holidays thanks to its milder climate.

📍 EL ALAMEIN DISTRICTS

🏙 New El Alamein is a modern and rapidly developing resort area with new hotels, shops, and entertainment.

🏛 Old El Alamein is the historic part of the city with traditional neighborhoods, monuments, and museums.

🛥 Sidi Abdel Rahman (Marina) is a premium district with yachts, luxury villas, high-end hotels, and beautiful white beaches.

🌊 Sahel is a modern, well-maintained beach area known for its picturesque sand dunes.

🐚 El Dabaa is a quieter and more authentic area worth visiting for the local atmosphere and fresh seafood.

✨ WHAT TO DO?

Besides relaxing on the beach, you can stroll along the promenades and marinas, sample Mediterranean cuisine, go diving and snorkeling, go shopping, and in the evening, explore the bars and entertainment venues of New El Alamein.

History buffs should visit the El Alamein Military Museum, dedicated to the events of World War II.

☀️ WHEN TO GO?

The best time to visit is summer and the peak season in September–October. In summer, the air warms up to approximately 30–32°C, while the Mediterranean Sea reaches 25–28°C.

📍El Alamein is the kind of Egypt that can surprise even those who have visited the country many times.

The morning began with breakfast at the hotel, and then the amazing Siwa salt pans awaited us🩵

The water here is so saturated with salt that it literally floats—you can just lie on the surface and relax. ✨

All around are incredible landscapes, silence, and the feeling of being on another planet.

And the local shops offer everything you could want: salt with herbs, aromatic mixtures, salt lamps, and souvenirs—everything that reminds you of this extraordinary place.

Siwa continues to surprise with each new place. 🏜️🤍
