Matrouh’s ‘wondrous’ beach competes with Red Sea in summer

ALEXANDRIA, Egypt - 22 June 2017: Many travelers to Egypt are all about Sharm el-Sheikh and Marsa Alam, but would you like to visit a wondrous beach? Ageeba (wondrous) beach in Marsa Matrouh is a perfect destination for photographers, swimmers, tan lovers, and people seeking to relax and meditate.

The Mediterranean beach is named after a “wondrous” rock formation and cliffs surrounding a narrow coast. The shades of blues of the beach, mixed with the soft white sand and the unique tall rock formations with multiple shades of orange and yellow make the scene out of this world.

The weather in the summer is at its height, 32°C in July and August and 30°C on average. The perfect mix of breeze and sunshine is just enough to make the most of your vacation.

The beach is 28 kilometers away from downtown Matrouh; the ride is worthwhile, not just because you would be going to Ageeba beach, but also because you can see the coast all the way. When the shades of blue multiply, you know you have arrived at the wondrous beach.

Grab your camera for a photo session; the richness of the shore will give you perfect beach shots. Also, drink one of Egypt’s famous smoothies in a café atop one of the tall cliffs.
