Construction on the beach buffer zone

In line with the country’s trends, the law prohibits the establishment of any
establishments or businesses on the country’s sea shores for a distance of two
hundred meters from the shore line inland.The law defines the prohibition line for
sea beaches as the area in which it is prohibited to establish any facility on sea
beaches in light of what the Ministry determines and the Ministry of Environment.
The prohibition line is final after the approval of the competent supreme committee,
while the final prohibition zone for sea beaches (beach sanctuary) is the area

Case study 2 North Coast / Sidi Abdel Rahman Beach
Project Description Analysis for Problems and Impacts
Marassi North Coast is one of the most important
large coastal villages developed on the shore of
the Mediterranean Sea, in the city of the North
Coast, which is located between the governorates
of Marsa Matrouh and Alexandria.

Problem Identification
The problem of the North Coast marinas began years
ago when the construction of villas began in the low-
lying sabkha area, then the head area, which feeds the
bay with sand, which over the years led to a decrease
in the amount of sand in front of Ras Gbeis, then the
erosion began west of the Sidi Abdel Rahman Hotel,
and also in the western area of the resort. Diplomats, The environmental expert said that the naval forces intervened and the
according to a blog post published by Salah Hafez, an North Coast marina crisis is currently being studied, noting that
expert and consultant in the field of energy and
environment.
Marassi’s attempt was to focus on the fact that the marina is not the
cause of the slaughter, but studies have shown that the matter is more
complex, because the slaughter began before it was built, specifically as
a result of the construction of The tourist resort, and that the ill-
considered development of its construction is the reason behind the
slaughter, but the marina made the matter worse.Hafez explained that
correcting the problem of the North Coast’s marinas is difficult, but
alleviating its impact is possible, but at a high cost and taking a long
time to do so.

Destruction of coral reefs
Threats or risks facing coral reefs:Coral bleaching
is a disease that has invaded reefs in Florida, the
Caribbean, and AustraliaIt causes coral color to
bleach and weaken as a result of the unusual
warmth of the waterWhich some scientists
attribute to global warming.
The use of red and pink corals in jewelry, which
environmental experts described as a new setback
for endangered marine creatures.- Coral reefs are
exposed to danger and destruction as a result of
the uprooting of citizens and touristsFor it, and
their walking on it, intentionally or
unintentionally, and due to their lack of
knowledge of its importance.Maritime transport
traffic is a danger that threatens coral reefs, either
by directly colliding with them and breaking the
coral, or as a result of the waste, chemical and
petroleum pollutants it throws that affect the
coral and lead to its death

Coral reefs.. under threat in Dahab
“Irresponsible tourism” is perhaps
the most accurate expression that
describes what is happening to

and sea, is being neglected and
destroyed at the hands of
amateurs and ignorant people,
whether vacationers or divers.

There are many reasons, but neglect and destruction are the same, the most important of
which is the increase in diving tourism and the destruction that occurs as a result of
movement over the reefs, the density of amateurs, and the number of ships that throw
draughts and anchors to stabilize ships in the reefs, or their collision at night with reefs,
which destroys many of them, or the throwing of garbage and plastic bags, which leads to
