The sea in Marsa Matruh is next level

Here's a Marsa Matruh travel guide: Pre-trip Preparation - Documents: Bring valid passport, visa, and related documents. - Clothing: Pack lightweight, breathable summer clothes like shorts and T-shirts, plus sun-protective clothing, swimwear, swimming cap, sunglasses, and sun hat. - Other items: Prepare SPF50+ sunscreen, after-sun care products, common medicines, and travel adapters. Transportation - External transport: Fly from Cairo to Marsa Matruh Airport (about 1 hour), or take a bus from Cairo/Alexandria (recommend Superjet company, 5-6 hours). - Local transport: Taxi starting fare is 5 EGP; charter a car for sightseeing (300-400 EGP/day). Must-visit Attractions - Ageeba Beach: Known as "Milk Sea" with powdery white sand and milky-blue waters. The coastal caves make perfect photo spots. - Blue Hole Beach: Marsa Matruh's most stunning seascape with dreamy gradient blues. The underwater caves teem with fish, ideal for snorkeling. - Mandra Bay: A hidden gem with rocky coastline and crashing waves. Enjoy pink-purple sunsets with cinematic atmosphere. - Qattara Depression: Called "Earth's Scar," this endless dune field offers thrilling dune bashing. Sunset views resemble scenes from "Dune." Food Recommendations - Seafood: Try crispy fried shrimp, grilled squid, or seafood soup with shrimp, squid, clams, fish, and crab. - Local snacks: Affordable options like vegetable fritters and fried potatoes. Accommodation - Star hotels: Comfortable stays with full amenities (e.g., Marsa Matruh Beach Resort) for quality-seeking travelers. - Budget hotels/hostels: Economical choices for cost-conscious travelers.
