Shaati Al Gharam

At the tip of the strip of land west of Marsa Matruh, you'll find Shaati Al Gharam (Lovers’ Beach). The water here is sublime, but the sand is only marginally less busy than at the main city beaches. In summer, boats (LE5) shuttle back and forth from the Lido beach across the bay. Taxis charge about LE30 to LE40 each way.
