Marsa Matruh Corniche
كورنيش مرسى مطروح
A seafront promenade around the city's bay, where people stroll and eat seafood and ice cream in the evening, and summer nights are lively.
The corniche follows the inner bay of Marsa Matruh. On one side lie the calm lagoon waters and beaches, and on the other, hotels, cafés and seafood restaurants. On summer evenings, local families stroll, take horse-drawn carriage rides and eat grilled fish, making it a great place to experience the Egyptian seaside holiday atmosphere. Nearby, the Libya Market sells dates, olive oil and Bedouin textiles.
