In the pursuit of a summer escape Egyptians are spoiled for choice, between Alexandria, Port Said, Matrouh, Hurghada, Sharm El Sheikh, or any of the many coastal cities lining the country. So what do we do if we’re struck with choice paralysis on where to go for the summer? We turn to Google, naturally. Here are the most Googled Egyptian beaches over the past 12 months:

1. Marsa Matrouh Beaches

Since the summer of 2023, Egyptian vacationers’ Google searches have been overwhelmingly Mediterranean.
