EMAK Marsa Alam for Management & Operation of Airports SAE, a subsidiary of the M.A. Al-Kharafi Group of Kuwait, had successfully negotiated the 40-year BOT concession agreement with the Egyptian Civil Aviation Authority. The new airport is operated under a separate agreement by Aeroports de Paris. With its opening Marsa Alam International Airport became a new international gateway to the new resorts area of the South Red Sea.
Marsa Alam is a village with a small harbor and stone quay. It is the ideal base for a fishing holiday. The Dokki Shooting Club has a resthouse here and can arrange deep sea fishing trips. Sharks, lobsters, turtles and muraena are among the catches. There are some fine offshore coral reefs and good diving facilities, for which the area has become well known in the last few years. A nature reserve stretches from here to Gebel Elba in the south.
In recent years, Marsa Alam has seen a splurge of development. There are now many three and four star resorts along the beach, with five star facilities soon to open. I will also have the largest marina in the Middle East, a golf course, and much more.
