Properties in Port Ghalib or Marsa Alam

[SHO]

Marsa Allam still has 5 years in front of it IMO and you'll be surprised as it will probably be more expensive than Hurghada...why?

Firstly build cost is a higher in Marsa and also Al Khorafi Group decided to buy most of it. What land I saw was not cheap except in the town and you wouldnt really want to buy there!

I personally think Marsa will be hot as in popular.

Marsa Alam is three hours drive South of Hurghada. Cairo is three + hours drive North unless I am mistaken?

The main thing Marsa Allam has going for it is the diving. It is second to none. The further south you go down the red sea towards sudan the better (more virgin) the reefs and quality of fish.

Must have a VERY fast driver

Marsa Alam is three hours drive South of Hurghada. Cairo is three + hours drive North unless I am mistaken?

Must have a VERY fast driver

We did Hurghada to Cairo by coach in 6 hours - return by car just over 5 hours.

Hurghada tro Marsa Alam is nearer 5 hours than 3 I think.

Going further south makes it hotter

Going further south makes it hotter - by about 1 degree on average

Get to Aswan it's about 2 degrees hotter on average year ropund than Hurghada.

I think most of the red sea resorts started out as a divers paradise.
I was talking to a cousin of mine who was telling me he first visited Hurghada on a diving trip with friends about 12 years ago....

 

[dave99]

Not sure how many people come only for diving

Hi all, somebody can tell me is it possible to buy a plot of land by $25.000 near to the beach in Marsa Alam. Or its very small money for that.

Time to drive from Marsa Alam to Hurghada ?

Marsa Alam. is a very small place, we drove through to Hughada which took 1 and 1/2 hours in taxi. a bit like driving to Cairo sea on one side and desert on the other. If hurghada prices go up we would like to buy a small piece of land there and build our own villa. If the timing is right.

Taxi's are very expensive at moment.
not alot to see
small town looks like John Wayne lives there.
Hotel's are 5* and need to be to keep you in them.

With devolpments happening it will proberly get alot bigger.

hope this helps.

Time to drive from Marsa Alam to Hurghada ?

Can you confirm time it took to drive - I'm sure it's more than 90 mins Hurghada to Marsa Alam - It's over 40 mins to Safaga.

Looks like optimism to me.

If you find a plot let me know what you are offered size / location etc, may be worth a look.

Does anyone have any information on Port Ghalib?? I've just invested in a 2 bed in Marsa Alam and think that it is going to be a great investment - thought I'd get in early on beachfront before the prices go up. However I don't know anything about Port Ghalib.

This is correct. It will cost 2-3 times that for beach front property in Marsa.
