Places of interest
Also known as the Caribbean of Egypt, this stretch of coast offers several sites belonging to a very ancient past. However, Marsa Matrouh is especially renowned for its natural beauty, surrounded as it is by over seven kilometres of rocks that protect it from the currents, giving an amazing appearance to the waters that bathe it. The remains of an ancient anchor used by the naval fleets of the Tolomei era lie not far from the inhabited centre. Nearby there is also a beautiful Coptic chapel and the famous Rommel Museum, housed inside the cave where Erwin Rommel, a German general, settled his headquarters. The museum displays tools, weapons and military uniforms from the era. Finally, don't miss the oasis of Siwa, situated in the middle of the desert, with the adjacent fortress of Shali and the pool of Cleopatra.
Best beaches
Rommel beach blends history and nature. In fact, it is here that the "Desert Fox" situated his headquarters. Gharam beach is also very beautiful, distinguished by its pale tones. The best-known beach, however, is that of Cleopatra, located inside a small bay, characterised by waters ranging from turquoise to emerald green. Legend tells us that Cleopatra and Marco Antonio used to swim there.
